Milton Syrah 2023

(0)

$45.00

Cool-climate Syrah from Tasmania's East Coast is something worth knowing about. Milton's 2023 is a fine introduction. Lighter and more elegant than warmer-climate expressions, with vibrant peppery fruitiness and a refreshing balance that makes it endlessly approachable. Crafted in a cooler, wetter vintage, this is a wine of genuine complexity and moreish character. Only 6 bottles left. Pair with slow-cooked lamb, beef cassoulet, or duck. Drink now through 2028.

Wine Making

2023 was another cooler wetter season with La Nina still being evident and whilst the season did present as this, a later patch of milder sunny weather helped the ripening of the Syrah along and have made an Estate Syrah for you to enjoy. It is not as bold as in warmer years but very enjoyable with any winter fare but especially slow cooked lamb or a beef cassoulet. Peppery fruitiness and a lingering morishness without the heavyiness of a high alcohol wine. Drink now or keep for 5 to 8 years.

Meet the owners

Milton has been in the Dunbabin family since 1980, a property that traces its farming roots back to 1826 on the sunny Freycinet Coast. Michael and Kerry Dunbabin spent years growing wool, carrots, poppies and grain before deciding a vineyard would sit more gently on the land, planting their first vines in the early 1990s. The family still runs 3500 Merino sheep alongside the vines, now tended by the next generation, and produces small quantities of handmade Pinot Noir, Syrah, Tempranillo and aromatic whites from one of the sunniest, driest corners of the state.

East Coast

About the region

Stretching from St Helens in the north to Bream Creek in the south, Tasmania's East Coast is as breathtaking as it is bountiful. A milder climate than the rest of the state, spectacular coastal scenery, and over 300 hectares under vine make this one of Tasmania's most exciting wine regions. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay are the stars, but the East Coast also turns out outstanding Riesling, Pinot Gris and Sauvignon Blanc, wines with a freshness and purity that's genuinely hard to find anywhere else.
