About The Wine
Margaret River has a reputation for serious, cellar-worthy red wines so it's great to see a more playful side of the region from South by Southwest duo, Mijan Patterson and Livia Maiorana.
This Sangiovese is picked while the fruit is fresh and bright, leading to a juicier expression of the variety than the more savoury and structured red wines it's famous for in Italy.
It's the kind of red that's down for a good time, not a long time. It'll even take a chill if you're in that sort of mood.
About South by Southwest
Founded by two wine adventurers, Mijan Patterson and Livia Maiorana, South by South West is a contemporary, meandering négociant working in an age-old profession.
In addition to their own organically farmed Wallcliffe vineyard, fruit is sourced independently from a loyal network of pioneering growers - the results are small batches of unique and ever-changing styles, varietals, and blends that highlight the charm of the south west region.

From The Producer
As with our previous vintage, the challenge to test the norm for expected varietals grown within the Margaret River region inspired us to make the 2020 Sangiovese – that combined of course with our love for Italian varietals and wine and our time spent amongst the vines in Tuscany, Italy. With the 2020 Sangiovese we wanted to continue to showcase a fruit forward wine with natural acidity and food focus but add a little more structure to it and extract a little more tannin focus.
Our 2020 Sangiovese is a superb fruit-driven mouth-feel wine, balanced by beautiful tannins you would expect from the Italian varietal and tangy acid. A hint of clove, cherry and spicy plum reaches the mid palate and finishes with a comfortable amount of tannin grip. This is a rare expression of Margaret River fruit, resulting in a juicy, playful and structured wine.

I am trying to add more of a wine to my cart but it won’t let me? This means we are running low on stock of that wine. So for example, if the website will only allow you to add 3 bottles and no more, then that is all we have of that particular wine. The good news is we may be able to order more for you. Just contact us on 02 8376 8775 or hello@differentdrop.com and we'll organise the additional quantity for you.
