Luke Lambert Syrah 2021

ENERGETIC AND DARK-FRUITED SYRAH MADE BY A MASTER WINEMAKER

 

"It’s a Syrah of drive and power, possessing the signature Lambert lift, balance and perfume. Brambly blue and red fruits sit cheek-by-jowl with cured meat savoury notes and graphite-like tannins and minerality. The silky and velvety mouthfeel, energy and complexity is to die for.

You can’t have a perfect vintage, but you can get pretty bloody close. 2021 was a benign year with consistent ripening and enough sunlight to inject great power and intensity into the fruit. It’s a year that allows you to taste the health of the sites and the vineyard behind the wine. This comes from the high-grown Tibooburra vineyard, where the quality of the clonal material supplies us with a deeper, darker and more structured Syrah than we typically see from the Yarra. This is what drew me to the site and helped make this Syrah a touchstone example of cool-climate Australian Shiraz." Luke Lambert

 

“In an unassuming shed near this small town in the center of the Yarra Valley, just northeast of Melbourne, Luke Lambert makes gorgeous, minerally chardonnays and perfumed, savory syrahs under the Luke Lambert label. The wines are fresh and energetic… They are the sorts of wines I love to drink — pure and unpretentious but with character and depth.” - Eric Asimov, The New York Times
