Description
"A blend of all our estate vineyards plus the St James's vineyard in Uraidla. The 2024 release is more about the earthiness and bramble reflective of the majority of the fruit coming from Little Creek and Basket Range, but it still sits comfortably in our usual house style - a dance of aromatics and tannin. Sadly very tiny yields from 2024 so not much...." - Winemaker Notes
"While not straying from its usual form, this release is slightly more savoury and earthy – an honest blend of fruit from all the estate vineyards, plus a little addition from Uraidla. Bramble and moss, orange rind and dried fig – this is fruit broken open to the air of a cold autumnal dusk. It's contemplative and unfurls over days. The tannins are soft but elastic and there is a feeling of stretch and relent to their movements. And the acidity gleams. It's spicy, too: pine needle, violets and black tea. It has the weight and concentration to make you double check the price." - 95 Points, Katrina Butler, Halliday Wine Companion
