2022 Regional Sangiovese
2022 Regional Sangiovese
Onto the last dozen or so cases of this perennial favourite. One of the highlights of our regional collection. If you are after a wine but not sure what to eat, this is the one.
Its all about red fruit, cherries, cranberries with a lovely amaroesque finish. Just goes so well with foods high in acid lashed with olive oil

Ravensworth 2022 Regional Sangiovese
"“..revel in the perfumed red berries and flowers, and the mouth-watering, lip-smacking tension of the palate and incredibly long finish” 95 Points, James Halliday (The Weekend Australian)
"This represents the 20th vintage for Bryan Martin's sangiovese. I reckon he has the knack now. There’s a lovely fragrance and such delightful fruit in this, all red cherries and barberries with splashes of blood orange and amaro. Tannins are spot-on, all textural, shapely and mouthcoating, while the juicy acidity seals the deal." - 95 Points Jane Faulkner (Halliday Wine Companion)
