Vintage 2022/2024
The Shiraz grapes for The Struie come from old vines in the Barossa and Eden Valleys. The Eden component brings floral spicy aromas that are supported by more brooding notes of tar and chocolate from the Barossa. The palate is luscious and silky making this one of our favourite wines.
A blend of 44 year old Eden Valley Shiraz vines and 80 year old Barossa Shiraz, The Struie is aged for 18 months in a combination of old and new French oak barriques prior to bottling.
Lifted aromas of blueberry, mulberry, blackberry and black plum meld effortlessly with graphite, sandalwood, liquorice and dark cocoa. The palate is welcoming and plush with more black and blue berries with soft round tannins and an earthy forest floor note adding complexity. The plush fruit and acid intermingle perfectly for a textured mouthfeel. Incredible now but will reward for up to 15 years, but probably best in the first 10.
