A golden opportunity to experience another expression of Leighton’s talents - a premium reserve Syrah

97 Points Campbell Mattinson

A classic smack of liquorice, blackberry, pepper and a touch of mint. Don’t hurry each sip, sit back and enjoy its lingering finish.

Tasting Notes

Pyren vineyard basks in the sunshine of the glorious Warrenmang valley in the Victorian Pyrenees. Under careful management, the precious low-yielding vines have produced top quality fruit.

Winemaker Leighton Joy has employed hands-off winemaking, letting the vineyard take the lead role in the final wine, and pure Victorian elegance is the result. Delicious!

Deep red purple. Very fragrant lift of blackberry, plum, dark cherry, black pepper and clove. Immense palate of blueberry compote and red berries, alluring amaro and dried herb complexity, savoury and ferrous tannins, and beautifully perfumed barrel.

Critic Scores

Grown organically; 40% whole-bunch carbonic maceration (for 21 days). Aged in 500L French oak, 20% new. An exquisite wine. It takes woodsy spice notes and delivers them on a platter overflowing with fresh, ripe, juicy berries, blue and black and red. It throws pepper into flowers, mezcal into cedar, and pops licorice sticks into the berried flow of it all. This is both a fastidious wine and a joyous one. It's worth celebrating.

About this Wine

Shiraz

Bold and full-bodied, Shiraz delivers rich dark fruit flavours of blackberry, plum, and black cherry, layered with black pepper, clove, and subtle smoke. Firm tannins and a velvety texture give it real structure, often rounded out by notes of chocolate and vanilla from oak ageing. A versatile pairing partner for grilled meats and hearty dishes, it's one of Australia's most planted red varieties

Victoria

The wine region of Victoria has the highest number of grape vines than any other state in Australia. It is home to over 600 wineries and well known regions such as Yarra valley, Heathcote, and Rutherglen. Victoria is situated in the southeastern corner of Australia where due to the location, the climate has a cool maritime influence and is known for their outstanding Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, along with producing Australia’s most famed dessert Muscat and Topaque wines.

There are a number of different terroir levels throughout the wine region of Victoria which leads to the production of different ranges of wines. In the southern region of Victoria, the vines are regulated by the cool winds of the Bass Strait. Central Victoria consists of mostly flat terrain that tends to be drier and warmer than the rest of Victoria, which results in more fruit concentrated wines. It may be surprising to note that Victoria is the third most productive wine region in Australia, seeing as it does not have as many areas suitable for viticulture, which has resulted in the cellar door culture of Victoria being concentrated with smaller, but more personal boutique wineries.
