Jericho Single Vineyard Kuitpo Vineyard Syrah 2023

So this comes from the Adelaide Hills, hence the use of the term Syrah that more closely aligns with its medium-bodied elegance. It’s a vibrant, red-fruited and quite spicy wine that’s been made with wild yeast in small open fermenters, with a combination of 60% new French and older oak for about 14 months. I love the energy and vibrancy on the palate here, with its distinctive minerally red fruits and light leafiness adding to its intrigue. It’s deceptively medium to light-bodied, yet there is great flavour intensity here, and I suspect with further maturing this will open up and develop.
