Description

19 Crimes Sangiovese is a firm and full wine, with a subtle vanilla sweetness giving rich mouthfeel. 19 Crimes turned criminals into colonists. Upon conviction, British rogues, guilty of at least one of the 19 Crimes, were sentenced to live in Australia, rather than death. This punishment by `transportation’ began in 1788, and many of the lawless died at sea. For the rough-hewn prisoners who made it to shore, a new world awaited. As pioneers in a frontier penal colony, they forged a new country and new lives, brick by brick. This wine is borne of the rules they broke and the culture they built. And like our legendary rogues, it’s a taste that’ll live forever in infamy. Download the Living Wine Label app, scan your bottle, and discover the infamous stories behind the 19 Crimes range of wines.
