It’s dry-grown, single-staked, and rooted deep into fractured rock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2023 fruit was hand-picked and fermented wild with a touch of whole berries, then matured in tight-grain French oak for 18 months. As always, it was bottled without fining or filtration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis vintage follows a long, cool growing season - one of the latest picks on record. The result is Syrah with lift and definition: dark plum, cured meat, some earthy undertones, and that floral thread running right through the core. There’s weight here, but it’s not heavy. The tannins are fine, the structure is clean, and the fruit feels well settled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA strong release that shows what altitude and patience can do in Blewitt Springs. Built to age, but already in a good place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e94 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Seamless, refined finish.
