Description
Esk Valley’s The Great Dirt Series range are Prestige wines, a celebration of the unique vineyards and revered soils in which the vines grow. This single vineyard wine is produced from a small parcel of Syrah vines on the legendary Cornerstone Vineyard located on the corner of Gimblett Road and Highway 50, at the heart of the famed Gimblett Gravels Winegrowing District. The famous Limmer clone vines were planted in 1996 in very stony Class 1a Omahu Stony Gravels. Yields are kept low and the vines intensively farmed in the pursuit of quality. There is incredible depth of fruit and complexity in this 94-95-96-96/100 rated Syrah… emanating from the soils and maturation for 14-months in 30% new French oak puncheons. 2021 was a beautifully balanced vintage delivering intensity and elegance… it will drink deliciously through 2035 if well cared for.
Smells
A heady perfume of black pepper, plums, fresh dark cherries, sandalwood, dark chocolate and spices.
Tastes
Wonderfully deep, dark fruit resonates throughout the concentrated palate, with layers of fine French oak complexity creating body and richness. Silky smooth tannins give structure and transition the juicy, vibrant fruit. The salivating, elegant edge is alluring and adds to the irresistibility of the wine. Drinking well from 2025 through 2035… an ideal partner to roasted red meats.
We taste, rate & guarantee every wine we sell.
