2023 Michael Hall Eden Valley Syrah, Flaxman’s Valley

2023 Michael Hall Eden Valley Syrah, Flaxman’s Valley

The Naimanya vineyard sits high in the Eden Valley at 520 meters altitude, on the south-west fringe of the tiny sub-region known as Flaxman’s Valley. The soils are sandy loam, gravel and quartz over clay. Its altitude and soil structure allow a long, slow ripening season typically generating marked spice and floral characters.

For wine nerds like me: High winter rains preceded a cool spring. Late budburst, flowering and a cool autumn combined for a very late vintage. Handpicked 27 April 2023, 95% destemmed, 5% whole bunch. Pressed to French oak (33% new), matured 14 months.

1200 bottles produced.
