Notes: Sangiovese, the classic Tuscan variety, has found a home away from home in the Matakana region of New Zealand. Heron’s Flight’s Amphora Sangiovese is a truly unique expression of the grape – the wine is fermented in a terracotta amphora, the original winemaking vessel used in the ancient world. Terracotta is porous and helps the wine to develop without influencing the flavour like oak barrels.
