Vintage Longbottom 'H' Adelaide Hills Syrah 2019

4.250000000 star rating 4 Reviews
A Wine Champion this year, redolent of Rhône restraint rather than blockbuster ebullience, this ‘big dark-fruited wine but with freshness' was another exciting strike for Adelaide Hills.

This is definitely syrah, rather than shiraz in style, despite coming from Australia. Made by mother and daughter team Kim and Margo Longbottom, in cool-climate Adelaide, it's very northern Rhône in character, but with a little more fruit sweetness. The juice is fermented on skins for 10 days, with 10% whole bunches included, before ageing for 15 months in French oak. There's a lovely depth of aromas and flavours: mulberry, plum and blackberry fruit, plus a touch of bacon and leather. Medium-bodied, wiht subtle, well-integrated oak.

Fine, firm crimson. Heady nose. Lovely salt and leather quality. A little sweeter and less punishingly dry than a typical northern Rhône red. Long. For a fine, polished Syrah, this seems very good avlue
