{"product_id":"ravensworth-hilltops-montepulciano-2023","title":"Ravensworth Hilltops Montepulciano 2023","description":"2023 was a long, cool season in Hilltops, but some dry, warm autumn weather ensured full ripeness. This year’s release hails from one of Bryan’s usual favoured Montepulciano vineyards, Grove Estate, located just east of the town of Young. The fruit was destemmed and left as whole berries in open-top fermenters for four weeks with daily plunging. The first year’s maturation occurred in 1– to 3-year-old puncheons, followed by a second year in 2000-litre Stockinger foudres. “This has to be one of the few Montepulcianos out there that gets a full year in Stockinger barrel,” Bryan quipped. “It really is a fantastic variety in Hilltops: big, robust and magnificent no matter the conditions.” Sold!","brand":"Ravensworth","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48641255637220,"sku":"24988-750","price":40.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0648\/2575\/3828\/files\/d17ed97a-d810-f011-ac41-02954333b573_24988-750.png?v=1775110054","url":"https:\/\/www.internationalfinewines.com.au\/products\/ravensworth-hilltops-montepulciano-2023","provider":"International Fine Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
