Sami-Odi Hoffmann Dallwitz Syrah 2021

Sami-Odi is a small winery in the Barossa Valley producing the smallest about of Syrah at the highest quality. The grapes come from separate selected pots from Barossa's finest vineyards. Wine maker Fraser McKinley tends to use organic principles, producing his wines using whole bunches., and sometimes blending across barrels, sites, and vintages. In 2014 he was named the Young Gun of Wine. 

Our ‘Hors Choix’ or ‘Super Choice’ derived from the Hoffmann’s two oldest plots, sown in 1927 (ER-27) and between 1888-1912 (DW-OLD).
These 22 Burgundian Pièces were carefully assembled and bottled amid the spring of 2022 after enduring a 78 week elevage. Bottles were filled without filtration, fining or sparging (the removal of naturally occurring oxygen & C02) and all transfer’s were completed via gravity prior to bottling.

This can be enjoyed now or cellared for as long as your taste desires. It adores air and will continue to unfurl over many days if kept in cool conditions.

Yields ranged between 26 & 39 hectolitres per hectare.

6275 bottles were filled.
