Ravens Croft Wines

Highly respected winemaker Mark Ravenscroft produces superb reds, including petit verdot, tempranillo and pinotage. The last of these hails from South Africa, like Ravenscroft himself. Among the whites is a top-notch verdelho. It's a modest cellar door in the backcountry west of Stanthorpe, with a tranquil wooden deck made for quiet contemplation. A James Halliday four-star winery.
