Mayer Yarra Valley Syrah 2025

Mayer Yarra Valley Syrah 2025 "Made with 100% whole bunches and matured in seasoned hogsheads. A saturated crimson purple. A seductive and slightly atypical Mayer shiraz. It's a touch riper than normal with its bouquet of dark cherry, blueberry and warm spices. A totally delicious and fruit-driven wine that will provide a heap of enjoyment over the next decade, if not longer." 97 Points - Philip Rich, Halliday Wine Companion From the home farm. Blue fruited, peppery, dashes of Aussie bush, some game meat notes. Supple texture, a fresh, transparent kind of texture with a sheath of light, lithe tannin. Juiciness inherent, pretty fruit characters, quite the stern, Italianate tannin coming mid palate through the finish, and lingers with a saline-pumice stone minerality. Fine wine paradigms. 95 Points – Mike Bennie, The Wine Front
