Its Origins
What The Critics Say
94/100 Halliday's Wine Companion, Dave Brookes
"Syrah from a selection of vineyards in the Barossa and Eden Valleys, judicious use of whole clusters, matured on light lees in a combination of large-format vessels for around 8 months prior to bottling. Deep purple red in the glass, it's a rollicking, crunchy, bright and sapid ride with a gorgeous plume of plummy fruit, cut with spice and floral nuance, whole-bunch amaro notes and a sense of space, clarity and detail that brings a smile to the face. Such a wonderful drink and great value." Drink 2022 - 2029
93/100 Parker's Wine Advocate, Erin Larkin
"The 2021 Syrah is gently meaty on the nose, but very fresh, though. Forty percent of the fruit underwent carbonic maceration, which has imbued the wine with life, energy and a bit of a party. There's a pleasurable fatty sweetness here; it extends the wine out in the mouth and through the finish. It's very good. This is vibrant and bright, but it's slinky too. Gee, it's good. The tannins that shape the wine make it savory, but the core of fruit is pure."
95/100 James Suckling (2018 vintage)
"Full body, round and juicy tannins and lots of blackberry and blueberry character with charcoal and granite undertones. Very flavorful and beautiful. Drink or hold. Screw cap."
