Swinney Syrah 2021
$45.00Shiraz/Syrah and Australia. It just works. The 2021 is quiet different from previous releases; rounder in shape, ample with finer, lacier tannins. Not so sleek or linear and a dialling back of the mouth puckering mineral acidity. Blueberry, sweet cherry, violets, raspberry and delicate spice. Plush, without any sense of heaviness, a triumph of a […]

Bubb and Pooley Syrah 2022
$62.00Not the darkest Syrah/Shiraz I’ve ever seen, perhaps more evidence of Tasmania’s ambition and difference with their mainland counterparts. Stunning aromatics of Hoisin, Chinese Five Spice, blackberry, cassis, rhubarb, sweet raspberry, lavender soap, fennel and camphor. Pure and translucent, sensual and slick. Concentrated, elegant and mineral. Snaking shape, threading flavour and texture together. Spice flecked […]

Farr Rising Shiraz 2021
$55.00This shiraz fruit comes from an original By Farr site, planted in 1994 in black cracking clay soil, which dries very quickly. This is the first of the shiraz vineyards to be picked and, being the warmer site, fits perfectly into the Farr Rising line-up. Farr Rising shiraz shows how refinement and fruit flavour can […]

Eisenstone Greenock Shiraz 2021
$85.00Deep, bright red-purple colour; the bouquet likewise bright and fresh, initially with a high-note of freshly-sawn oak, which dissipated somewhat with time in the glass. The palate is bright, intense and elegantly weighted, just making the full-bodied weight category. It’s quite oaky but has good approachability, medium-long carry, and the tannins are ample and very […]

Predominantly whole berry, 8% whole bunch, natural yeast, held on skins for 21 days while getting gently pumped over once a day while the ferment was most active (4-5 […]

Swinney Syrah 2022
$45.00This is part of a triumvirate of wines that showcases the vineyard and winemaking that have crafted these super wines. This is not your fruit bomb Aussie shiraz. This is syrah and there is more than a little Old World style here. The fruit shows an almost luminosity that bursts from the glass. The […]

Mercer Limited Release Shiraz 2021
$60.00A very good vintage for the Hunter Valley. Wonderfully bright aromas of blackcurrant pastille, sweet cranberry, redcurrant, violets and briary notes. Ruch and full bodied, filling every corner of the palate. Such polish and control. There’s a sense of effortless and silky power. Terrific purity and flow, the bright fruit flavours so fresh. Tannins and […]

Greenock Creek Third Estate Shiraz 2020
$90.00Aromas of cherry, violet, plum, chocolate and woody notes. Intense and full bodied, a real attack of flavour. Enveloping with red fruits, the most in this lineup, blackberry, mulberry, chocolate, vanilla, fennel and wood char. Round in shape, fleshy and driven with lively acidity and lacey, chalky tannins. For all its size, this is remarkably […]

Iggy Springton Eden Valley Syrah 2020
$75.00Dark red colour, concentrated, and solidly structured, yet retaining the elegancy and finesse of Eden Valley. Lifted aromas of black currant, sour cherry, blueberry, dry sage, and a hint of leather. On the palate there is a sensation of bright acidity supported by well-integrated tannins. Aftertaste lingers, suggesting notes of liquorice. Think of succulent braised […]

Iggy Lyndoch Barossa Valley Syrah 2020
$75.00Deep red, almost crimson in colour. Dense aromas of plum, black pepper, black currant, nutmeg, and a touch of smokiness. Aiming for savouriness rather than fruitiness here and showcasing elegance rather than robustness. Supple, yet very much present tannins with fairly fresh acidity. Pleasant mouthfeel with a long, persistent finish. Drinking well now but will […]

Iggy Forreston Adelaide Hills Syrah 2021
$50.00Typical Forreston Syrah character on the nose. Vibrant and complex. Notes of sour cherry, red currant, and even a touch of eucalyptus. It seems like with every sniff the bouquet gains another dimension. Deep red in colour with brighter hues around the edge. Mouthfeel is as mineral as one could expect from rocky soils on […]
