Wild & Wilder Cloud Cuckoo Land Riverland Nero D'Avola Montepulciano Aglianico 2022

90 POINTS

Ned Goodwin - Halliday's Wine Companion

A righteous blend of sturdy Italianates serving up just enough fruit, structure and savouriness in a mid-weighted guise. With that, an innate desire to drink a second glass. Reductive at first whiff, yet red fruits marinating with beef bouillon, thyme, rosemary and lavender, grab attention. The finish, gently ferrous and herbal, with a kick of dried tobacco leaf, mint and pepper grind. A highly versatile, strongly recommended dry table wine.
