A SEXY, SVELTE INTERPRETATION OF FLAMBOYANT MONTEPULCIANO.
A sensual, yet exuberant wine. This Montepulciano, an Australian expression of this southern Italian variety, is teasingly textured, whilst bursting with rich and exotic flavours.
Colour: Dark ruby red
Bouquet: Sour cherry and savoury spice aromas
Palate: Vibrant kirsch, with a rich and savory mid-palate, followed by a spicy and lingering finish.
Cellaring: Drink up! but also a 8 - 10 year proposition.

Let customers speak for us
from 40 reviewsVery drinkable red - not too heavy. Great with food or to quaff.

I have been a fan of First Drop Montepulciano over the years and the 2019 vintage does not disappoint. Very well balanced with great fruit and mouthfeel. A most enjoyable drop. (Pardon the pun)

Enjoying the fruits of the teams labour back at home. No pun intended. Lol

The wine has a deep red color, complex aroma and smooth tannins.

One of the Best Shiraz’s I have ever had absolutely love it 😍

Absolutely love Endless Summer

Delivery was fine look forward to receiving more cheers

Enjoying the Pinot Grigio very much. Great summer wine.

Such an excellent drinking wine
Not your everyday quaffer - something you bring out for your favorite people

The wines were delivered super quickly so we got to take a couple on our road trip and they were delicious. Looking forward to enjoying the other 4 bottles over Xmas with friends when I’m back home.

I didn't like the previous Drag Queen rose as Cinsault Mataro was just not my thing. I was privileged to taste the new 100% Grenache when it was about 2 days old and even then, it sparked something on my palate that made me think I might very much like this version when it is released. Now that it's in the bottle, it is certainly has lived up to that expectation so much so that I have added it to my wine club order. The 2024 release is definitely a winner for me.
