2022 Konpira Maru Gymkata Syrah

If you're looking for a rich and hearty Shiraz to sniff, swirl and contemplate, you might want to keep on moving. But if you're hunting for a juicy red to throw in the esky and take to the beach, then this is just the ticket.

The Gymkata is made from Shiraz picked nice and early from a single vineyard in Killmore, Victoria.

Made with low levels of intervention but high levels of care, this bright and bouncy red wine is begging for a chill. It's flecked with pepper and herb notes, sits light a crisp in the mouth. A new school version of the good old Shiraz grape.

It's a red wine built for a good time, not a long time.
