"Fermented with 15% whole bunches; seven days on skins. There’s juiciness here, as is the varietal tendency, but there’s restraint, too. Raspberry, black plum and dark cherry, with six months in neutral oak adding a savoury dimension alongside bunchy white pepper, hardy Mediterranean herbs and a little earthiness. There’s lovely poise, the tannins feel resolved, which is not always the case with nero, and the acidity is typically sprightly." 92 Points, Special value, Marcus Ellis, Halliday Wine Companion
"Sicily, Puglia, Tuscany, Abruzzo, what can’t McLaren Vale and Coriole do? ...
Good wine, maybe a little warm in alcohol, but has the cherry and almond flavour, a little woodsy and bitter, strawberry friand, spicy with it, and quite rugged on a finish of solid length. Kind of bold, but fun with it. Some black jellybean to close." 91 Points, Gary Walsh, The Wine Front
'The Lloyd family founded Coriole in 1967, and are considered pioneers in the McLaren Vale region, and visionaries in the planting of Italian and French varieties.
