2025 Sigurd Chenin Blanc

Dan Graham is taking a new look at the Barossa, steering away from heavy extraction towards wines that emphasize real structural detail and genuine drinkability. He has spent years building a network of top-tier growers, and for this 2025 Chenin, he has cast his net across both the Barossa and the high northern hills of the Clare Valley.

Dan presses the fruit firmly to grab extra phenolics, lets the juice ferment naturally on lees, and allows it to go through full malolactic conversion. It spent months resting in a mix of seasoned French and Slovenian oak before settling in tank.

What hits the glass is brilliantly unique and savoury. It tracks along with a smoky, wild herb edge, backed by a waxy, salty citrus drive and a distinctive texture that feels like crushed stones.

There's real flesh and depth here, but it stays entirely focused, refreshing, and dangerously smashable.
