"A robust, fruity, and delicious Syrah, according to James Suckling!"

“This wine displays true Syrah character, with ripe strawberries and sweet tobacco, along with notes of bark and nuts. A hint of tuile as well. Spicy. Medium-bodied, with plenty of juicy fruit and a delicious finish. A solid Syrah. Ready to drink now. Screw cap.” (James Suckling 2022) • Screw cap

Robert Parker - Wine Advocate

Wine rated (2023 guide) 90/100 (Excellent wine)

Estate rated "Recommended" (Wine producer recommended by Robert Parker—The Wine Advocate)

About the wine:

The 2021 Hunter Valley Shiraz is a bit closed upon opening, but it opens up when swirled a bit. It offers notes of black pepper, pink pepper, plenty of fresh and spicy acidity, sumac, iodine, poached strawberries, and star anise. The acidity has a nettle-like flavor that I find very pleasant, but I think what this wine really needs is a little air. If you can let it breathe a bit—either in your glass or in a decanter—I think the wine will be even more enjoyable. It has lovely fruit, but it’s still quite lively at the moment. 13.5% alcohol, screw cap. 2023–2033
