2018 Heartland 'Foreign Correspondent' Dolcetto Lagrein
Heartland
Dolcetto (95%) and Lagrein (5%) from Langhorne Creek. The Dolcetto and Lagrein were picked early for maximum freshness. The two were then fermented for 24 hours at very low temperature before being taken off skins for a remarkable lightness of colour and tannin. No oak was used for this wine which was left in stainless steel for six months before cold stabilisation and bottling.
Foreign Correspondent is a hard hitting exploration of fruit character. Red berries zip around the mouth. They are enhanced by a sprinkling of herbs and spices. This is an uncompromising, elegant and sophisticated way to enjoy a relaxing glass of red that pairs with everything from fine food to fine company. Serve slightly chilled for maximum enjoyment.

Brilliant, clear crimson; fresh and juicy red cherries and berries. Really attractive.

I looked at the label and it reminded me of my younger cub-reporter self. This comes out of Langhorne Creek. Well. It’s a very good drink. You don’t have to pay the big bucks. Red licorice, black cherries, drifts of aromatic dried herbs. Fresh and juicy in the best of ways. A gentle tether of tannin; just enough. Good stuff. Thumbs up.
