Details
Origin & Legacy: The windswept plains of Gimblett Gravels have tales to tell, and the Sacred Hill Deerstalkers Syrah captures them in every bottle. The vines stretch over lands once tread upon by local deer hunters, their silent vigils and camaraderies echoing in the name 'Deerstalkers'. And while the hunters found a new haven in Bridge Pa, they left behind a legacy, one that we honour with this vintage.
A Whiff of Stories: As you lean in, the wine whispers secrets of the past. The rich aroma of plum and boysenberry paint images of lush landscapes and bountiful harvests. The subtle hints of vanilla and clove evoke memories of festive feasts, while the delicate fragrance of violets transports you to blooming meadows under the summer sun.
A Symphony of Flavours: Take a sip, and immerse yourself in the dance of flavours. It's as if every drop contains the spirit of the land - vibrant, detailed, and potent. The dark fruits take center stage, narrating tales of abundant seasons, while the underlying notes narrate stories of the earth and sky. And though it promises a future of evolution, peaking around 2024, the 2019 vintage is already a melody that resonates with charm.
A Match Made in Heaven: Just as the hunters revered the deer, this Syrah finds its soulmate in venison. Whether it's the tender backstrap or any other game meat, the pairing is poetic. Let it accompany your culinary adventures from now till 2029+, a testament to the timeless allure of Gimblett Gravels.
Join Us: In every bottle of Deerstalkers Syrah, we invite you to partake in this dance of nature, legacy, and craftsmanship. Let's raise a toast to history, cherish the present, and dream of the future. 🍇🍷🦌
