Description
"The 2023 growing season brought above-average rainfall in winterand spring and a cooler summer. The majority of the harvest tookplace in the colder months, and most vineyards were not harvesteduntil April, approximately one month later than usual. Cooler seasonscan pose several challenges, but through our dedicated commitmentto viticulture practices, such as hand pruning and harvesting withcareful soil management, the vintage resulted in low-yielding andresilient fruit.The vintage has resulted in very strong wines from the Eden andBarossa Valleys, with bright colours and freshness from highernatural acidities, auguring them towards greater longevity and detailacross the palate." - Winemaker Note
"The 2023 Struie is a blend from Eden and Barossa, melding the higher altitude austerity and structure of Eden with the density and muscle of the Barossa. I like this wine, because if you sit with it for long enough, you can clearly see the component parts side by side. The whole makes the understanding of the parts. You get the blueberry, black cherry, licorice, crushed quartz, aniseed and dark chocolate of Eden married to the bloody, earthy, gritty muscle of Barossa. Awesome." - 95 Points, Erin Larkin, Robert Parker Wine Advocate
