From the Hutton Vale Vineyard. This is very fragrant. very spicy and lightly peppery with such a distinctive nose. offering blueberries and some cedary oak, as well as berry-pastry, pie-crust and spicy notes. The palate has such distinctive freshness and detail with a granular texture to the tannins (100% whole cluster fermentation) and brightness from cooler-climate acidity. Dense, focused finish. This needs five years to settle, best from 2026.

Another potentially perfect wine, the 2018 Lamella Shiraz, from the Eden Valley, is full-bodied and velvety in texture. Offering swirls of complex mixed berries, tea and spice, it finishes long and tannic, with plenty of backbone and structure, plus intriguing hints of espresso and chocolate. In contrast to The Standish, it's more impressive, while The Standish is more opulent and generous.
Hier zur 4er Kollektion der Standish-Weine aus dem JG 2019
Sourced from the Standish Family Vineyard – Siegersdorf Road. Vine Vale. Barossa Valley. Planted on own roots in 1912 (7.6 Hectares – 12ft x 10ft spacing). Fine white sand over deep heavy red clay at 302m above sea level.
Dense. latent and strapping. this flaunts the flawless purity that can be leached from the famed sandy flints of Vine Vale. Tightly wound with its cards close to the vest. deep-set aromatics of coal. pressed currant and black truffle are foiled by redolent tones of tilled soil. beef broth and slow roasted meats. Dark and brooding with immense concentration. persistence and energy it is somewhat of a heroic style but is gently laced with a long fine cloak of silken tannin. More reticent than its stable mate. it shows wonderful staying power for those with immense patience and cool. dark cellars.
“The sensational Shiraz offers up scents of roasted meats. beef broth. blackberries. and cassis liqueur. Its texture. sumptuous depth. and incredible richness and purity blew me away. Despite its huge size. it possesses tremendous equilibrium and definition. Drink this classic South Australian Shiraz over the next 10-15 years.”
