Deep-set, brooding and distinctively MacMuir. The 2024 release marks another compelling expression from one of Felton Road’s newer sites. Planted on deep silt soils just east of The Elms vineyard, MacMuir carries a density and presence that sets it apart within the estate. As with all Felton Road wines, it is grown organically and biodynamically, hand harvested, and produced with no fining or filtration.
This vintage opens slowly, with dark berry fruit and savoury complexity revealing themselves over time. Fermented with 30 percent whole bunch and matured in 20 percent new oak, the wine’s structure is firm but polished. Fine-grained tannins shape a wine of substance and clarity. A compelling release from a vineyard now fully in stride.

A mix of luscious berry fruit and elegant floral characters framed by fine-grained tannins that begin to melt as the wine sits in the glass revealing layers of flavours. A wine with personality and heft. Approachable now but with mouthwatering development potential.
