      Our Hill’ is Sami-Odi’s quieter side — a Syrah shaped by the undulating hills south of Angaston in the Eden Valley. This is the fourth release from this site, where lower yields and higher elevation craft a wine that trades sheer power for nuance, delicacy and mood.

      Fraser McKinley describes it best: think Grenache meets Pinot Noir, with a brush of Nebbiolo’s ethereal edge. It’s Syrah, but in a silk robe — perfumed, subtle and textural rather than dense and brooding. This is the bottle for drinkers who chase detail over impact, and who understand that Barossa can be whisper-soft when allowed to speak gently.

      Serve slightly chilled, swirl patiently and pair with lighter fare like duck breast, roast quail or a simple mushroom risotto.

      Sami-Odi

      Fraser McKinley is the force behind Sami-Odi—a singular project quietly revolutionising Barossa Syrah. A native New Zealander with a background in spatial design and fine art, McKinley took an unlikely path to winemaking. A formative stint at Torbreck and The Standish Wine Co. laid the technical groundwork, but Sami-Odi has always been something else entirely: a deeply personal expression of site, vine, and time.

      Since 2010, McKinley has worked exclusively with Shiraz from the Hoffmann Dallwitz Vineyard, managing his own rows with rigorous organic care. These blocks—some with vines dating back to the 1880s—are cultivated with obsessive precision. Yields are low, the detail is high, and the winemaking is uncompromisingly hands-on: small-batch ferments, whole bunches, no additions except sulphur, and bottling by gravity, unfined and unfiltered.
