Fighting Gully Road Block 2 Sangiovese 2022

Crushed, macerated on skins in large format oak, 18 months’ maturation in new and seasoned oak. Built for longevity, not speed, Block 02 is a viticulturist’s dream come true, a block planted according to a firm clonal selection protocol. It’s one serious sangiovese, still evolving, still very much a taut, precision-driven engine yet to reveal all. Looks to dark cherries, plum, fennel, earth, tobacco, thyme and cured meats framed in savoury tannins and wood-spiced oak. Leaves you wondering and wanting more. 96 points – Jeni Port, Halliday Wine Companion
