The Old Vine Syrah patch was planted in the 1930s and is on a slope of the property with a westerly aspect. These old gnarly vines are planted in heavily decomposed ironstone and quartz. The style of wine is completely individual and the winemaking team always comment on how light the style is and how exotic the spices are in this vineyard. The spices come across like incense mixed with deeply aromatic and smoky lapsang oolong tea. Exotic characters such as sandalwood, cocoa powder, sarsaparilla and cola elements top the roast meat and flinty, strawberry and cream palette of this wine. The lighter frame on this style is highly attractive and the intoxicating spices combine to create something highly exotic.

CLARENDON HILLS Clarendon Onkaparinga Grenache, McLaren Vale

In 2024, we’re celebrating our fiftieth vintage with the release of a new flagship wine.A single block wine that epitomises our meticulous approach to everything we do. Every aspect has been carefully considered to ensure The Devil is the most characterful and expressive wine possible. With just eight barrels produced, The Devil really is in the detail. Gentle and patient winemaking is preferred to ensure that the wine expresses the unique site characters of the House Block. The hand harvested grapes were gently crushed and then fermented in an open fermenter and hand plunged to facilitate subtle tannin extraction. After 12 days on skins the fermenter was basket pressed and the free run and pressing fractions were combined. The wine was then aged for 20 months in 100% tight grained French oak. The proportion of new oak was kept low to encourage the continued expression of the characters that are exclusive to the vineyard site. To preserve purity and character the wine is made with minimal additions and is allowed to clarify naturally without the use of fining or filtration. Opulent layers of dark berry fruit sprinkled with roasted spices. A silky mouthfeel with moreish complexity, sublime balance and graceful poise. A wine to celebrate our heritage and herald our future.
