2022 Adaption Harcourt Syrah

The Adaption vineyard is a tiny 2 acre organically farmed plot in Harcourt sitting around 400m above sea level just adjacent to Mount Alexander. The Syrah vines are just under 30 years old, on their own roots and currently dry grown with no sprays, herbicides, fertilisers or pesticides used at any time. We leave the grass to grow long right up until harvest where it is slashed to enable more comfortable picking free of snake scares. Consisting decomposed granite soils with enormous blocks standing out in bold relief scattered throughout the vineyard. This fruit is just so special, its all about the granite!   

Crafted from the organically farmed Syrah of Adaption Harcourt vineyard, this wine is picked early at 12 Baume to embrace its natural acidity. After a six-day destemmed flotation style carbonic maceration submerged in free rosé Syrah rose juice, it ferments in Italian fibreglass and rests in bottle for a minimum of 12 months.

This vin de table style Syrah is a little darker than it’s green counterpart doe the light maceration achieved with the destemming, with lifted red fruit notes and the signature bright acidity. Chill it for an elevated experience. 

Unfiltered, unfined and zero additions.
