About This Wine:

Vineyard:
The Cabernet comes from the Chinese Block vineyard which is located in the Willunga district at the southern end of McLaren Vale. e grapes are grown on black Biscay clay and hand picked at 13 baume and placed onto 10kg drying racks. Yeild is around 2 tonnes an acre (35hl/ha).

Key Facts:
Mitolo delivers wines that express purity of varietal avour, show elegance of structure with soft tannins whilst being rich, powerful and complex.  All the grapes are picked on avour ripeness which contributes to the soft, ripe tannins and vibrant fruit which is a key characteristic of all Mitolo wines. Serpico uses the 100% Amarone winemaking technique of drying the grapes to increase concentration of avour, mid palate roundness and
softness and contributing complexity with silky tannins..
Ratings & Reviews

92 Points - Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar (2007 Vintage):
"Inky ruby color. Brooding aromas of cherry-cola, licorice, smoky Indian spices and cured tobacco. Deeply concentrated dark berry and bitter cherry flavors are sweetened by notes of vanilla and licorice pastille, and are complemented by a mounting spiciness and an exotic floral quality. More tannic on the finish, which is refreshingly bitter and strongly repeats the spice and cola notes. I'd lose this in the cellar for at least another five years." - Josh Raynolds (Sep/Oct '09)

91 Points - Wine Spectator Magazine (2007 Vintage):
"The 2007 Serpico Cabernet Sauvignon offers up toast, chocolate covered cherries, and mineral notes. Structured and a bit compact, it will round out with a few more years of bottle age but without the generosity normally associated with this cuvee." - Jay Miller (Feb 2009)
