Ravensworth - Shiraz Viognier - 2021

From the organic farmed estate vines of the Martin family in Murrumbateman. Matured in old puncheons and foudre. Oh, beautiful. With concentration but coolness. Like a chamomile tea-soaked flannel on the eyes after too much sun. Red fruit, ripe and rich in the mix, floral lift, meadow herbs and fennel with gentle cinnamon spice notes – wonderful characters for scents and flavours. It feels sleek and lengthy, gentle but with a building framework of fine tannin lacing it all together. Superb. 95 Points - Mike Bennie, The Wine Front
