From a block of 80yo vines on the estate Koomilya Vineyard. Hand-picked, 10 days on skins, pressed to tank, thence to used puncheons for 14 months. Deeply coloured, this immediately sets the rules of the game as it looks back 50 years ensuring it is the fruit that speaks, not the winemaker, St Henri, not Grange. Black fruits, sombre notes of earth and persistent, but ripe, tannins fill the mouth. The future of this wine stretches out of the horizon of the mind.

A captivating wine that marries the best of the region’s supple, approachable Shiraz style with a wealth of detail and astutely assembled tannin structure. The nose is bathed in ripe red berries, delivering a very nicely curated array of earthy and sweetly spicy complexity. The palate has a seductive allure as it is very supple and packed with fleshy, ripe red plums. The tannins are suspended in helix-like form and wrapped around a long core of plush, deep blackberries, red and dark plums. Deeper chocolate and plums to close. Superb. Drink or hold. This will cellar nicely.
