2022 Sangiovese $40.00
Again, we continue to the challenge the norm for expected varietals grown within the south west region by producing our forth vintage of Sangiovese. Although our vintage in Tuscany seems like a distant past memory, the taste of a great Chianti is still very fresh in our minds and although we are not trying to replicate a Chianti, we are drawing on the traditional techniques we acquired from our time in Tuscany and putting our new world, Margaret River contemporary spin on the varietal.
This is a rare West Australian expression of this variety and made in tiny amounts. Our Sangiovese aims to showcase a fruit forward wine with present tannins and great natural acidity. By embracing carbonic maceration our Sangiovese earns the title of ‘Juicy Banger’ and is the perfect fresh, juicy wine to go with friends and food.
Vivacious. Juicy. Playful.

Our 2022 Sangiovese is a blend of fruit sourced from Geographe & Margaret River.
This wine is made from a blend of hand harvested fruit that was open fermented as whole bunches and kept fresh in tank, and machine harvested fruit that was fermented in tank and matured in oak.
In a glass the wine presents with a vibrant crimson red colour, appreciated clearly through the flint bottle. The nose is lively and aromatic with spicy cherry aromas you would expect from the addition of whole bunch and the subsequent carbonic maceration that resulted.
This is a superb fruit-driven mouth-feel wine, balanced by beautiful tannins that you would expect from the Italian varietal and tangy acid. A hint of clove, cherry and spicy plum reaches the mid palate.
