Vasse Felix Syrah 2021 Australien

- 95 Punkte The Western Australian: „As the pioneer winery in Australia's Margaret River wine region, Vasse Felix's commitment to Syrah is historic, with the oldest Syrah vineyards. The Vasse Felix Syrah is a modern, elegant, cool climate style crafted from our premier parcels of southern Margaret River Syrah (Shiraz).
The 2021 Vasse Felix Syrah is a transparent bright ruby with a purple tinge. On the nose, lifted aniseed, white pepper, cacao, clove and pine sawdust sit on bright fragrant raspberry, cranberry and Japanese sour plum. Beautifully silky entrance, with chalkiness on the finish leaving a dry and immensely fragrant perfume lingering. Raspberry and cranberry juice with a red peppercorn spice and a hint of red liquorice remain. An excellent wine to pair with red meats, hearty stews, poultry, and red sauce pasta dishes.“

- 94 Punkte James Halliday’s Wine Copanion und Special Value for Money, Jane Faulkner: „Not the easiest vintage in Margs, but you wouldn’t know it with this buoyant yet savoury offering. If anything, it needs more time in the bottle as it’s highlighting the exuberance of youth with its poppy dark fruits all spiced and tarted up with cranberry juice flavour. As it opens in the glass more layers are revealed, the texture of fine sandy tannins and lots of them, there’s a stony quality in a positive way as this is still tight. Savoury, complex and appealing. Drink by 2033.“
