  1. The Story Wines Moyston Hills Syrah 2021
    The Story Wines Moyston Hills Syrah 2021
    As a rule The Story buys grapes in, usually on the back of long term relationships, but this wine comes from Rory Lane's first venture into vineyard ownership. He's bought grapes from this vineyard in the past, though over the past 10+ years it's largely been contracted to Mount Langi Ghiran. He's now running the vineyard organically. Exciting times. This release saw 30% whole bunches, wild ferment, three weeks on skins and maturation in 3000 litre foudre.
    It's deliciously (black) peppery and ripped with bright, berried fruit. If you like Grampians shiraz/syrah you will love this. It's medium-bodied, bunchy, savoury and just all-around adult, though the fruit is perfectly well ripened and velvety with it. Walnut-edged tannins pull the curtain on a terrific show if pepper and fruit. CAMPBELL MATTINSON, winefront.com

    It certainly projects plenty of the spicy stuff - pepper, fennel seed, bay leaf, rosemary - but there's more to laud. Works a fine-textured tannin riff through dark cherry, plum and dusty cacao, finishing with a lasting, gentle savouriness. Dances rather than glides. Delicious. JENI PORT, winecompanion.com

  2. The Story Wines Super G Red Blend 2022
    The Story Wines Super G Red Blend 2022
    It's not heavy but it's so wild with spice and so generally captivating that it's hard to put it down. This is a cracker of a wine. Red and blue berried fruit flavours, black pepper notes, a mezcal aspect and flings of roasted nuts. It's ripe and robust, in a mid-weight way, but the real key here is that it's aflame with roasted spice/pepper notes. CAMPBELL MATTINSON, winecompanion.com
