Levendigheid, verfijning, spanning, balans
De meest fijnzinnige van het stel. Waar de drie andere wijnen hun oorsprong vinden in Barossa Valley ligt de basis voor Lamella in Eden Valley. Hoger gelegen, koeler en met een armere, stenige bodem. In Eden Valley bevindt zich niet alleen de wereldvermaarde Hill of Grace Vineyard van Henschke maar ook de schitterende Stonegarden Vineyard, aangeplant in 1858. Die buitengewoon voorname afkomst klinkt ten volle door in Lamella. Het kristalheldere fruit, de florale nuances, de subtiele kruidigheid, de minerale onderstroom, de soepele, buigzame tannines, alles is met zoveel oog voor detail op fles gebracht. Levendigheid, elegantie, verfijning, spanning, balans, Lamella heeft het allemaal. Een adembenemende wijn van absolute wereldklasse.
"There’s great balance of blue and black fruit, with undertones of licorice, minerals, potpourri, bresaola, bitter chocolate and cherry confit. The palate is firmly framed yet silken in texture, with length and body that carry
the finish for minutes. Made from 100% whole-cluster fermentation, from vines planted in 1858. Spiced, perfumed and textural, with a firmly built structure that will live for decades yet is delicious now, showing all the hallmarks of a world-class syrah. Excellent." (James Suckling, 99/100).

"Following on from the perfect 2022 release, I find myself opening this wine with a fair bit of excitement. I called Dan Standish one day in early May 2023 (I think to ask my questions about the wines I was tasting), and he was in the vineyard up in Eden Valley, picking the Lamella fruit for this wine. 2023 was a wet, cool season, so much so that the fruit for this cuvée was picked in May. Still, aromatically, the 2023 Lamella Shiraz leads with sumac and orange peel, fresh raspberry, black cherry, licorice, petrichor, wet asphalt and river stones. Sandalwood and rose petals follow through the finish. This is velvety and grainy, supple and pliable. The tannins are dry and silky, and they perfectly balance the intensity of sweet/spicy fruit in the mouth. This wine is a clear example of why you must back a producer over a vintage, because a good
producer will triumph no matter the conditions."

"This year's Lamella, an Eden Valley wine, sees the majority of the shiraz sourced from the epic Stonegarden vineyard down near Springton, with a smaller proportion of fruit from Hutton Vale. Last year it was the other way around, but vintages are like that. The fruit, again at its core pure dark plum and blue
fruits, has some redder shades in play, with plenty of exotic spice, meadow herbs, purple floral tones and that Eden Valley sage thing going on and the thinest wisp of spearmint rising from the depths. I love this wine's powdered granitic heft and mineral cadence, the wink of Campari and bunchy nuance done just right and its composed 'Eden Valleyness'. It's lovely."
