Description

Levels IN, excellent appearance.

At the top of the pyramid is the 2005 Syrah Astralis Vineyard. It is sourced from a vineyard planted in 1920 and is one of the Syrah cuvees in which 100% new oak is utilized (along with Brookman, Hickinbotham, and Piggott Range). It delivers an ethereal bouquet of smoky oak, violets, espresso, black pepper, blueberry, and blackberry liqueur. Densely packed and tightly wound, all it needs is time. The wine is totally harmonious, impeccably balanced, and exceptionally long. When it fully unwinds, even my high rating will appear conservative. Its only competition comes from the likes of Guigal, Chapoutier, Chave, Krankl, and Ringland. Tasted October 2007. robertparker.com

 

This lot forms part of a private family collection with an enthusiasm for every corner of the wine-making world. Purchased through various reputable auction houses and UK wine merchants, the wine was stored in a meticulously organised country house cellar prior to removal for this sale. Now lying at LCB Vinotheque.
