2021 Pt Leo Road & Moorooduc Vineyard Syrah

$40.00

- +

Region: A cool climate region, strongly maritime influenced by Westernport Bay and the Bass Coast in the most southerly region of Victoria.

Vineyard: Pt Leo & Moorooduc Vineyard

Soil type: Basalt derived, clay loam over clay soils.

Notes: The 2021 Syrah is a vivid and complex expression of cool climate Shiraz. Blue garnet in colour, the nose is redolent of red rose petal, rosemary, star anise and blackberry. These characters follow onto the palate with black cherry and forest bramble, blood plum and roasted red capsicum, umami sweet soy and mocha notes, finishing with five-spice and pink peppercorn notes. The delicious, supple mouthfeel is perfectly balanced by an excellent acid line, chalky, slightly grippy tannins and persistent length.

Food matches: Smoked brisket, Shanghai pork fried noodles, portobello mushrooms with pine nuts, aged Comté or Gruyere.

The palate continues this riot of flavour, featuring all manner of forest fruits, such as strawberries and raspberries, coupled with a variety of cherries and a little plummy richness. The acidity gives the wine a wonderful lightness on its feet and the careful skin extraction has led to a silky texture with ample but superfine tannins.
