"I think this has claims to be the finest Farvie Syrah yet in its relatedly short history. The colour is just brilliant and bright with a glowing purely crimson hue. Power, intensity and concentration delivered with such poise. Bright red fruits with floral dark cherry and a little black olive adds to its nuanced capture on the nose. The palate is sublime, almost perfect, in its structure, poise and delivery. The sweet natural fruits are balanced and aligned with the fine minerally, ironstone ferruginous characters. Continues to redefine the Australian varietal style." - Ray Jordan
"Impenetrable purple in colour. On the nose, there is cinnamon, couverture, Satsuma plum, black pepper, charcoal and Turkish delight. The palate is tightly focused and intense with graphite, blueberry, iodine, ferrous & exotic spice. Great depth, intensity and optimism.
The fruit was hand-picked, berry-sorted and gravity-fed to a French oak vat and two demi-muids. We incorporated 65% whole bunches followed by wild fermentation to build structure and texture while promoting the bright and spicy aromatics. The wine spent 12 days on skins and was then pressed directly to fine grained, large format, seaoned French oak, and aged for 14 months prior to bottling. The wine was made with minimum effective Sulphites, is unfined and minimally filtered." - Swinney
