"First release of Syrah since 2019 thanks to the heat, 100% destemmed fruit, a short preferment maceration, fermented wild for three weeks. Basket pressed and given 13 months elevage in 25% new French oak barrique." - Winemaker Notes
"It’s got a swish to texture, levity, purity of fruit, but swagger too. The first thing that came to mind was ‘black olives’ then ‘black cherry’ then you get the cavalcade of game meat savouriness dosed with exotic spice, cola, alpine herbs, black pepper and beetroot earthy-sweetness. It’s got surprising concentration and depth, yet the shimmy of silky, granitic tannins does wonders for tension and refreshing the palate, the wine sits at medium weight and extends long on its cherry-olive credentials. It’s beautiful, balanced, energetic, flowing. A wine of immense charm and interest." - 95 Points, Mike Bennie, The Wine Front
