Hochkirch Syrah 2021
$50.00Out of Stock
The 2017 was the first Hochkirch Syrah we tasted. Revelatory; unique and detailed, we simply could not believe this was an Australian wine. The 2021 is a little deeper, with slightly darker blackberry fruit, structure, fine detail, gamey notes, freshness and a compelling herbal and spicy lift. Very fine, moreish and refreshing. Waters Wine Co […]

$25.00Mostly Sangiovese, with smaller amounts of Shiraz and Montepulciano. I love that this isn’t trying to be Bandol or Provence, that it wears the Australian sun on its shoulders.
