100% Syrah
VINOUS 95 POINTS - "The 2023 Red Blend is pure Shiraz picked before the harvest rains: 30% submerged cap, 70% whole cluster, with three weeks on the skins, 13 months in 500-litre barrels and ten months in foudre. It has a beautiful nose with a mixture of blueberry and blackberry fruit, crushed violet and wonderful crushed stone notes. After a time, it reminds me of a medicine cabinet that has been closed a long time. The palate is medium-bodied with a slightly briny entry. Fine depth, precise, Cornas-like, with a cool and saline finish, with a marine-influenced finish. Excellent."
JAMES SUCKLING 94 POINTS - "Blueberries, sage, grilled sausages and licorice on the nose of this deliciously savory syrah. It’s medium-bodied and meaty without fat or heaviness. Fine, well-integrated tannins."
50% whole cluster fermentation in open-top containers.
