Region: Beechworth
Variety: Syrah || Viognier
What's in the glass: Composed of 97/3% shiraz/viognier. Four different shiraz clones, four separate ferments and a whole lot of winemaking, including fermentation in an imported Italian concentrate 'tulip', go into this little beauty. Deepest purple hues. Makes a youthful, almost playful fist of shiraz with plenty of lively black- and red-fruited energy and pretty aromatics. Violet, sage, peppercorn, earth, allspice and dark cocoa powder pack the palate. It's complex, slurpy delicious and has an astringent, dry finish.
