Little did we know when we pulled our Italian strings to create this exclusive, Sangiovese led blend with a dash of Merlot that it would become one of our best-selling reds, now into its fourth vintage! Back with a smart new label and packed with juicier fruits than ever, try this fresh-from-the-press new shipment of Il Fagiano today.
Showing characteristic succulence, Il Fagiano has hints of cracked black pepper, its flavours evoking spiced red fruits and black cherries. Rounded and supremely easy to drink, it has mouth-watering fruit and well-integrated tannins on the velvety palate. The perfect choice to accompany antipasta, peppery grills and, naturally, home-cooked Italian cuisine.
If tasted 'blind', we believe this wine would be pegged as a £7-plus bottle.
