Murdoch Hill Orion Shiraz 2021
Sourced from the best fruit off the Landau block (the lion’s share is from the apex of the vineyard) and further classified in barrel post-fermentation, the Orion represents the cream of Murdoch Hill’s Syrah. The site is at 400 metres above sea level, predominately east-facing on shallow, red loam soils with varying levels of schist rock and ironstone. The vines were planted in 1998.
Hand-picked fruit spent 21 days on skins (with a 25% whole bunch component) in a two-tonne open fermenter. It was then transferred into 500-litre Stockinger puncheons (25% new) where it rested for 10 months. The result is a high-toned, perfumed and intense Syrah, with reverberating power and striking freshness. It’s savoury, spicy and packed with blue fruits, balanced beautifully by silky density, composed acidity and precise, graphite-like tannins.
