Luke Lambert Syrah 2021
Luke Lambert is fast establishing himself as an icon in the Victorian wine industry and his eponymously named Syrah and Chardonnay are some of the finest examples of cool climate winemaking in the country. With fruit sourced from one of the coldest parts of the Yarra Valley Luke is using traditional techniques to craft a wine of rare refinement, quality and balance.
In an unassuming shed near this small town in the center of the Yarra Valley, just northeast of Melbourne, Luke Lambert makes gorgeous, minerally chardonnays and perfumed, savory syrahs under the Luke Lambert label. The wines are fresh and energetic… They are the sorts of wines I love to drink — pure and unpretentious but with character and depth. - Eric Asimov, The New York Times
Luke Lambert 2021 Syrah vintage is of drive and power, possessing the signature Lambert lift, balance and perfume. Brambly blue and red fruits sit cheek-by-jowl with cured meat savoury notes and graphite-like tannins and minerality. The silky and velvety mouthfeel, energy and complexity is to die for.
