Meadowbank Syrah 2020
Meadowbank's award-winning history with Syrah dates back to the Estate's oldest vines (planted in 1974). In 2011 these vines famously led to the Jimmy Watson winning Glaetzer-Dixon 'Mon Pete' Shiraz. Alongside a portion from those 45-year-old vines, the majority of the fruit for this inaugural release (under the new Meadowbank label) came from hand-picked fruit from a new, north-facing block.
The palate offers wonderful delicacy and precision with red and dark fruits, again those spicy notes, and a twist of fresh anise. It's really vibrant and juicy yet very, very fine. Super classy, it's a wonderful addition to Australia's slowly growing band of graceful, perfume-driven and digestible Syrah wines.
