The Story
From the 1.7ha Block 31, the highest section of the 1946 bush vines. 50% whole berries, wild yeast open-fermented; matured in a foudre and ceramic eggs for 11 months. Truly great wines add something new on each taste; here, there’s an ethereal, otherworldly purity to the lingering finish and aftertaste. 99 points, drink to 2050, 14.5% alc, screw cap, $300. James Halliday. The Weekend Australian.
