ShirazThis old vines Syrah comes from our Thomas Block, one of the oldest vineyards in McLaren Vale, planted in 1887. It was handpicked and naturally fermented and aged in a beautiful handcrafted amphora all the way from Impruneta in the foothills around Florence, Italy. The nose is terrestrial, wild rosemary, sweet peas and wet limestone. On the palate ethereal, tight but generous, tannins like moon dust speak of a far flung place disappearing into the starry night punctuated by colourful swirls far out in the cosmos. Omnipresence enveloped by a cloud! Only 1200 bottles are made per vintage.
