Henty Farm Malakoff Vineyard Shiraz 2023


A new wine for Henty Farm - with access to fruit from the famed Malakoff Vineyard in Victoria's Pyrenees region.


Cool clime vibes: roast and fermenting meats, pan juices. Dried grasses, baked earth. A lovely savoury expression of Shiraz.

Lovely minerality to the wine, glimpses of the 'volcanicity' - a vibrancy and vitality I see in volcanic soils. Black fruit and twists of dark spice add extra dimensions through the final third, allowing the wine to build in stature and deliver a finish of substance. 94
