Notes from the Producer
In homage to Guigal's famous La Mouline, La Turque and La Landonne - my vision for this wine is to attempt to age a single vineyard Heathcote Shiraz in 100% new oak for a minimum of 36 months. The 2019 Syrahmi La La is our ninth release - coming from an outstanding vintage that had good fruit set, producing grapes with lovely colour and intensity. The grapes were hand picked in the Greenstone vineyard, which is set on 550 million year old Pre-Cambrian era soils at 200m elevation, and fermentation took place with 100% whole bunch, wild yeasts and hand plunging. The wine then aged in 100% new 500L Stockinger barrel for 51 months (the longest yet), before bottling in August 2023. Now, with 6.5 years of age, the 2019 Syrahmi La La is ready to meet the world
