95 points Wine Advocate: "The 2021 Syrah Estate Hillside Reserve has a medium ruby color and explodes with blackcurrant, cracked pepper, charcuterie, savory herbs and oolong tea leaves. The medium-bodied palate is chalky and fresh with pure, delicate flavors and a long, elegant finish with streaks of potpourri. This restrained, refreshing style is very easy to drink! (EB)" (12/2022) 95 points Wine Enthusiast: "From one of the more distinctive Syrah blocks on the planet, this bottling presents the cool-climate style in all its glory, with aromas of tar,...

97 points Decanter: "Most keen drinkers now realise that Australia can produce a gamut of Chardonnay styles, but somehow the word seems harder to get out about Shiraz. This wine from Lenswood in the Adelaide Hills should do the trick for anyone who has yet to realise that cool-climate accounts of the variety can be every bit as compelling as as their warm-climate counterparts. The wine is dark in colour, with lots of episcopal purple; the aromas are bright, lifted and billowing, not just cherry-fresh but with some billowing cherry blossom in there too. I...

97 points Vinous: "This is now the third opportunity I have had to review the utterly stunning 2019 Syrah SJR Vineyard - a wine that is actually showing better than when I first tasted it. Initially more reticent and Burgundian, this polished Syrah was aged in 60% new French oak before bottling. The wine shows beautiful red rose petals, nori, smoldering stones and orange blossom. The palate is exceedingly elegant with silky tannins and a light dusting of white pepper and salinity. Ripe strawberry, pomegranate seed and orange rind flavors combine with wet...

97 points Decanter: "Thoroughly engaging with masses of enticing dark fruit underscored by a flourish of minty herbals. Muscular and broad-shouldered with a fluency of fibrous tannins, a tang of lip-smacking acidity and a gorgeous smoky violet finish. (Platinum Medal, DWWA 2024)" (06/2024) K&L Notes: Consists of 100% hand-harvested and carefully sorted Syrah sourced from 25-year-old vines that grow in sandy granite soil. Whole cluster fermented, full malolactic fermentation, then aged for 12 months in oak barrels. *Biodynamic*

92 points Jeb Dunnuck: "Reminding me of a great Crozes-Hermitage, the 2019 Syrah Rodgers Creek Vineyard has terrific red and black berry fruits, bacon fat, peppery herbs, and hints of game in a medium-bodied, layered, balanced style that's already a joy to drink. It will keep nicely through 2029 with no issues, and I suspect even longer. This is 100% Syrah that spent two years in one-third new French oak." (08/2023)
From the chilly Petaluma Gap appellation, this is a juicy and lighter-weight Syrah fermented and aged in neutral French oak.

93 points Decanter: "An incredible Shiraz – sour, peppery and amazingly aromatic with a green peppercorn note atop ridiculously ripe fruit. Crunchy tannins form the perfect platform on which the glorious blackberry, liquorice, rhubarb and cherry notes cavort. 70% of this wine is estate fruit, so that goes some way to explaining why this has such an elite flavour. (MJ)" (09/2023) 93 points James Halliday: "Mostly (83%) Grampians fruit, though there are contributions from Heathcote, Swan Hill and Bendigo. This wine is often a happy hunting ground for val...
90 points Vinous: "The 2022 Crozes-Hermitage Origine bursts with energy. Made of grapes from 30-year-old vines grown in a density of 5,500 per hectare, it comes in at 13.45% alcohol. The 2022 is laced with raspberry jam, ripe blackberry, gravel and leafy elements. Earthy scents add further contrast. Concentrated and refreshing, this is a medium-bodied Crozes-Hermitage with absolutely no hard edges. (NG)(" (10/2023) Jeb Dunnuck: "Blackberries, mulberries, leather, and savory, floral, peppery nuances define the 2022 Crozes-Hermitage Origine, a medium-bod...

94 points Vinous: "The 2021 Winds of Change is fabulous. Silky and perfumed, this mid-weight Syrah is compelling right out of the glass. Scents of lavender, spice, mint and licorice open first, followed by a burst of blue/purplish Syrah fruit. Deceptive in its mid-weight feel, the 2021 is bursting with flavor and freshness. Drink it over the next decade or so. (AG) 94+" (05/2023)

93 points James Suckling: "I like this. Unexpectedly fresh shiraz, full-weighted, detailed and impeccably poised. Bravo. A hint of reduction on the nose sashays effortlessly to clove, star anise and dusty riffs on turmeric and curry powder, before violets, blue fruits and iodine play a more typically regional shiraz card. This is my favorite wine of the recent suite in terms of sheer drinkability. Younger vines, longer extraction and superior tannins to the rest, the result. Crunch, sass and power all in one. Drink or hold. " (11/2023) 92 points Wine A...

94 points Jeb Dunnuck: "A big, meaty, mineral-laced Syrah, the dense purple-hued 2020 Cotes Catalanes Secret De Schistes offers up a great nose of blackberries, roasted herbs, chocolate, and graphite that develops more meaty and leather notes with time in the glass. Full-bodied, concentrated, and rich, it hits the palate with a soft, supple, seamless mouthfeel, impressive tannins, and a great finish."

Out East is a woman driven operation that works with producers and growers around the world to create sustainably driven, lifestyle friendly wines. The Hermitage was a collaboration with the Cave de Tain in Tain l'Hermitage, one of the region's most iconic producers. The fruit is 100% Syrah from mostly granitic soils, hand-harvested and matured in French oak. It is a bold and rich Syrah that has aromas of roasted plum, hoisin and fig jam. The palate is dense with flavors of blackcurrants, licorice, plum jam and baking spices. This wine is drinking b...

96 points James Suckling: "This is the wine of this cooler vintage. The temperature ebbs, peripatetic at times, seem to have disadvantaged those varieties that ripen very late. Here, there are firm but sinuous tannins. A briny nose, demur yet brimming with intent. Dried black olive, pithy and chewy. Iodine, darker fruits, charcuterie, pimento and white pepper, ground across a long skein of freshness, melding with the ferrous and almost gritty salt-crusted tannins. Reminiscent of a good Cornas, this is fine, savory, mid-weighted syrah. Drinkable now, but ...

96 points Wine Advocate: "The 2018 Farvie Syrah hails from a brilliant season in Western Australia. It was warm and dry but not too warm and not too dry. It was a great year for all varieties and all regions. This is the inaugural release of the Farvie Syrah, which I reviewed upon its release in March 2020. The defining quality that makes this wine great (apart from the vineyard site) is the winemaking and the old large-format French oak that it is matured in. The fruit doesn't take on obvious barrel characters, which allows the inherent delicacy and det...

Rita Hills marine/salty sea breeze-like nuances. With a dense, powerful mouthfeel, full-bodied aromas and flavors, massive fruit, and building tannins, this beauty is going to benefit from 2-4 years in the cellar and blow you away over the following ...

93 points Wine Enthusiast: "From the granite soils and cool climates of the Grampians mountains, this baby brother to Langi's premium Shiraz provides excellent value. Highly peppery from first sniff, it also offers fresh red and black berry fruit underpinned by tar, eucalyptus and a touch of vanillin oak. There's juicy, satiny succulence to the midweight palate.

91-93 points Jeb Dunnuck: "The 2022 Crozes-Hermitage Cuvée Christophe should easily be outstanding. It's made in a slightly more modern style, with some new oak, but it has a classic vibe in its smoky darker fruits and peppery, meaty aromatics. Medium to full-bodied and nicely concentrated, with building tannins, it's going to 2-3 years of bottle age and will evolve nicely over the following decade."

98-100 points Wine Advocate: "I tasted the 2021 Syrah Distenta III as a precise blend from barrel on July 6—it's due to be bottled in August. It comes from three estate vineyards: The Third Twin (51%), Cumulus (26%) and 23% Eleven Confessions (23%). The Syrah is blended with 11.3% Grenache, 3.3% Mourvèdre, 2.1% Petite Sirah, 0.9% Petit Manseng and 0.7% Muscat and was vinified using 21% whole clusters.

Yet, it’s balanced and fresh with a warming finish. Generous yet firm. This needs food. Drink now." (11/2019) 91 points Wine Spectator: "Tightly built yet retains a sense of refinement, offering blackberry, stony mineral and spiced cinnamon flavors, finishing with slightly taut tannins.

This is a plush and loose-knit red wine with plenty of dark fruit, spice, tar and barbecue smoke. The main themes here underline the sweetness and natural succulence of the grape. This release of about 30,000 bottles marks a great opportunity to serve up some Sicilian veal rolls stuffed with breadcrumbs and perfumed with laurel leaf. If you love Syrah, this is a worthwhile taste of Sicily." K&L Notes: Planeta "Menf...

(JM)" (06/2008) 90 points Wine Enthusiast: "This flavorful, herbal Syrah spends its time in one-year-old oak; the reserve is made in 100% new oak.

Jeb Dunnuck's notes on the producer: "I’ve been visiting with Sine Qua Non for a decade now, and I never cease to be amazed at the quality consistently coming from this address. In addition, Krankl somehow manages to deliver brilliance with just about any variety out there, and whether it’s Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Touriga Nacional, Roussanne, or even Petit Manseng, you can expect a truly riveting wine, as well as a wine with singular characteristics.
