‘Exceptional value’ – 97 Points James Halliday
The 2019 Syrah was sourced from six vineyards in the Barossa and Eden Valleys, soils are generally poor and skeletal – for the most part light, gravelly and silty sands over deeply weathered base rocks of varied origins. Vine age varies from 20 to 115 years old (averaging 50 years old) and all fruit is hand harvested. Fruit is harvested relatively early to ensure bright fruit and textural freshness.
The wine is naturally fermented with a judicious use of whole clusters, 40 % in 2018, in a combination of stainless steel, wood and concrete fermenters. Macerations are in the order of 10 to 14 days – parcel dependant. Maturation is undertaken on light lees in a combination of large format vessels for around 8 months prior to bottling.
“The compelling complexity of the wine starts in the old vines, magnified by the whole bunch (40%) and whole berry (60%) fermentation: layer upon layer of blackberry essence accompanied by licorice, spices of all kinds and velvety tannins. Exceptional value.” – 97 Points & Special Value Wine James Halliday
