This Syrah is cultivated in vineyards enriched with pink quartz, imparting a distinct mineral elegance that elevates the wine’s complexity and depth.

Carefully crafted with 50% whole bunch fermentation and wild yeasts, this wine embraces traditional techniques that enhance its aromatic profile and texture.

5pts David Brookes (Halliday Wine Companion): “Syrah from the subregion of Stone Well, 50% whole bunch, matured in French oak puncheon for 10 months. A distinctly Rhôney style; modest in alcohol and packed with ripe plum and cranberry fruits, pressed wildflowers, exotic spice and meaty nuance. Spacious and savoury on the palate with a light floral tilt, fine powdery tannin architecture and a stony, amaro-flecked exit. Damn fine drinking.”

94pts Qwine: “From the Stone Well subregion, just a short drive down the road and around the corner from their winery, 50% whole bunches were used and it saw seasoned French oak (2% new) for ten months. Smokey and meaty to start, my mind spins with scents of bacon hock, cured meats, soy, coffee grounds, charcuterie board and unpopped popcorn kernels that all add interest. Not to be outdone, baked raspberries, dark cherries, red plums, char consume the mouth. Some tension adds to its alluring presence. As time goes on, chocolate dipped raspberries and Cherry Ripe slice make an appearance with a litany of exotic and barbecue meat spices drawing out to a long and incredibly moreish finish. Drying out slowly, soft dried herbs are scattered about. Give it a decant for now and it will be humming.”
