Sami-Odi 'Hoffman Dallwitz' Syrah 2023
- TASTING NOTE: "Fraser McKinley has nailed the cooler 2023 vintage with his Hoffmann Dallwitz release. It's essential; as in it presents itself as a pure essence of northern Barossa syrah with the characteristic Ebenezer compression and a sense of detail that only comes with an obsession for site expression and the craft of gentle winemaking. It's concentrated and presents with impressive fruit density, but there's a beautiful energy and freshness to its form. As always, the fruit is pure and perfectly poised; black cherry, blackberry, boysenberry and blue fruits. The cut of spice is deep and exotic, floral flecks and raspberry pip lift, a glimpse of dried herbs, dried meats and violets in the rear-view mirror with an earthen overtone with compact, powdery tannins as the wine fades out. Superb." 98 Points - Dave Brookes, Halliday

ABOUT THE PRODUCER: The much sought after and admired wines of Sami-Odi can be considered a benchmark of the ‘New’ Barossa. Fraser McKinley, both talented artist and winemaker, maintains control of every aspect of the wine from label design through to viticulture, winemaking and masterful blending to produce stunning wines of intense purity, freshness and sense of place. Since ’07 the renowned Ebenezer vineyard of Adrian Hoffmans’ Dallwitz block has provided the shiraz for Fraser’s wines, the single-vintage Dallwitz and multi-vintage assemblage the ‘Little Wine’. From ’20, these wines are joined by the ‘Our Hill’ from the McKinley hillside home block on the edge of Angaston. Sami-Odi is one of the Barossa’s finest, from a producer that has redefined the region's reputation for fruit purity and balance. Halliday
