Reserve Sagrantino

I’m in a non purchase mode at present but following a brief visit to the Stanthorpe/Ballandean wine growing district in the Granite Belt we caught up with young couple who bought Ravenscroft winery - Caitlin and Nick Roberts. Caitlin is an old school friend of my daughter Georgie and I had to support them. This Sagratino is one of several Italian and other varietals grown in their vineyards. This is highly savoury and food friendly - juicy, red fruited and tannic. A very good effort and comparable in quality with the Umbrian based Sagrantinos I have had.
