Description

The Grifi from Avignonesi is a 50/50 blend of Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon from two vineyard sites in Montepulciano.  Both varieties marry particularly well in this powerful red with Sangiovese showing up front fruit, spice and elegance whilst the Cabernet gives backbone and tannins.  Packed with dark berry fruits with lighter hints of blueberry and plum, the nose also shows plenty of oak and spice, the palate is complex and shows great depth.  This is a wonderful wien to enjoy with pelnty of breathing now, but has the capacity to age for at least a decade.


Founded in 1974, Avignonesi is the leading winery in the Montepulciano area of Tuscany, enjoying a sterling reputation amongst wine critics around the world.

Vandal Combat Rouge Field Blend.JPG

2022 Gonzo Combat Rouge, Vandal Wine Company

Red Blend

The Gonzo Combat Rouge is a rather unusual field blend of Pinot Noir, Cabernet Franc and Viognier which are co-fermented with whole bunch fermentation.  The results is a beautifully supple yet plush and ripe red wine with sweet, spicy raspberry and cherry fruit. We've found it drinks best slightly chilled on a warm evening.
