I like this for its simplicity. It's honesty. A savoury sangio - Jane Faulkner

Description

"Bryan Martin and sangiovese should be shouted from the rooftops."  Mike Bennie

Bryan Martin established his own label Ravensworth in 2001 while working as Tim Kirk’s righthand man at the iconic Clonakilla winery. With over 15 years experience at Clonakilla, it is no wonder that his wines have achieved cult status and become a favourite of Australian wine lovers. 

The Ravensworth Regional Sangiovese is unquestionably one of Australia's best value Sangiovese. The perfect bistro wine. The 2019 is the 16th vintage of this wine, the grapes sourced from six different vineyards across the Canberra District, Hilltops and Gundagai regions of New South Wales. 

"I like this for its simplicity. It's honesty. It's a savoury sangio with textural, grainy umami tannins working alongside a neat balance of spice and red fruits. And the right amount of enjoyment for matching with char-grilled meats and vegetables."  Jane Faulkner

"There are six different vineyards from Hall, Murrumbateman, Hilltops and Gundagai contributing this year. A beautiful medium bodied wine that carries fragrant dark cherry, floral and spice aromas with a fine textural palate. Our sixteenth vintage and just getting better and better with vine age and us getting the smarts.

It was just a brilliant year, warm to hot, small crops, perfect really. Processed as whole berries, so no pumps used, a natural ferment that wasn't messed around with too much and then left on skins for three weeks. Matured in small 5-year-old French oak cask."  Ravensworth

Wine region map of New South Wales

New South Wales

New South Wales is home to more than 500 wineries across 16 wine regions that produce a range of extremely diverse wines. The regions are Canberra District, Cowra, Gundagai, Hastings River, Hilltops, Hunter Valley, Mudgee, Murray Darling, New England, Orange, Perricoota, Riverina, Southern Highlands, Shoalhaven Coast, Swan Hill and Tumbarumba.

Hunter Valley is New South Wales' best known wine region and has long stolen much of the spotlight . It is also Australia’s oldest continuous wine region - the first vineyard at Wyndham Estate was established in 1828 using cuttings supplied by viticulturist James Busby, widely considered the father of Australian wine. Semillon is perhaps the most iconic wine of the Hunter Valley and is among the greatest and most distinctive wines of Australia - if not the world.

New South Wales' wine regions have a wide range of microclimates. The Great Dividing Range has a substantial influence on the climate of many of the viticultural areas. The regions of higher elevation, such as Canberra District, Canberra District, Orange and Tumbarumba have cooler climates with more continental influences. These regions are responsible for some of the State's most enticing chardonnay, shiraz, cabernet sauvignon, riesling and sauvignon blanc. They, together with the Hunter Valley, which by contrast, is very warm, with high humidity and a large amount of rainfall during the growing and harvest season, produce the bulk of the high quality wine in New South Wales.
