Single Vineyard Expression

Sourced from a distinctive Eden Valley site, Lamella offers a more fragrant and finely pitched expression of Shiraz. Its combination of blackberry, raspberry, spice and floral character is supported by substantial depth, balanced structure and considerable cellaring potential.

Extraordinary fragrance and complexity really sets this apart, as does the very cleverly pitched ripeness that has impressive impact, without stepping over the mark. The blackberries and spices, raspberries and sweet florals lead to a palate that has a fresh array of intense fruit. A great and unique single-vineyard shiraz and a wine with phenomenal depth of flavor, delivered with such balance and grace. Drink or hold.
