Iodine and purple florals define the nose, before a crescendo of purple pastille, anise, charcuterie pepper and clove. Polished and suave, with a curtain of classy oak wrapped across the teeming finish. An exercise in how to manage extract and primary fruit into a paradigm of immense class, poise, layer after layer of complexity and nigh on effortless drinkability. Bravo. Drinkable now, but best from 2027.\u003c\/q\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2021\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Standish Wine Company\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWine:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lamella\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariety:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% Shiraz\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVineyard:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single vineyard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Eden Valley, Barossa\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry:\u003c\/strong\u003e Australia\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAlcohol:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14.5%\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSweetness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSuggested Drinking Window:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2023-2058\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Casey Cellars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45583119220822,"sku":"6530893625","price":252.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/5301\/4102\/files\/1317_2021_The_Standish_Wine_Company_Lamella_Shiraz_750ml_Wax_Capsules.jpg?v=1787291633","url":"https:\/\/caseycellars.com.au\/products\/2021-standish-lamella-shiraz-750ml","provider":"Casey Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
