Another vineyard which needs no introduction to lovers of classic Victorian wines. Still farmed and managed by founder Neill Robb, much like Balgownie it has been a bastion of quality since establishment. The wines also enjoy a similar track record of cellaring.

The vineyard has been dry grown since planting, with vine roots now stretching deep into the hillside soil - largely composed of shale and mudstone, with a iron rich surface layer of ochre red loam, essential for its water holding capacity.

Once hand harvested the fruit was entirely de-stemmed, then partially foot crushed before transfer to open fermenters where it remained for three weeks. The must was allowed to soak until natural fermentation commenced and was then extracted with a combination pumping over, delestage and pigeage before basket pressing.

Elevage took place in a combination of new Stockinger 300l (30%), Spanish stoneware jars and seasoned thin staved Bordeaux coopered barriques for 12 months, before four months in stainless steal after assemblage. The only addition to the wine is a small dose of sulphur.

Impenetrable garnet. Subtle and restrained, though incredibly distinctive. Redbank slowly reveals layer after layer - cassis, new leather, warm terracotta, fig and blood plum. The most elegant of Black Holes of aroma and flavour.

Fine and layered tannin coats the mouth, carrying inky, ferrous complexity and blood plum fruit.

Redbank eloquently evokes the iron rich red loams, shale and wild scrub of this part of the Pyrenees.

Please decant well prior to drinking, or cellar for as long as you like.

Joshua Cooper “Shays Flat Vineyard" Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

$500.00

Winery: Joshua Cooper

Region: Pyrenees - Victoria

Winemaker: Joshua Cooper

Varietal(s): 100% Cabernet Sauvignon

The Shay’s Flat Vineyard is situated on an elevated and picturesque ridge in the heart of the Pyrenees. A distinctively Australian setting with the vineyard surrounded by wheat paddocks, native bushland and scrub, the 20+ year old vines are rooted deep into mineral rich shale, quartz and mudstone soils, growing powerful, yet detailed fruit. It is the second to ripen of the three Cabernet Sauvignon sites.

I have a distinct soft spot for the Cabernet wines produced in the 70s and 80s by the pioneering wineries of Central and Western Victoria, many of which seem ageless even now.

Elevage took place in a combination of new Stockinger 300l (30%) and seasoned thin staved Bordeaux coopered barriques for 12 months, before four months in stainless steal after assemblage. The only addition to the wine is a small dose of sulphur.

Deep, dark garnet. Reticent on opening, aeration shows intense sour cherry and cassis, mulberry, lavender and black olive with a sweet mint top note and alluring graphite and terracotta complexity. A compact and powerful palate opens with time to reveal layers of deep dark berry and red cherry fruit, before a rumble of fine layered tannin and cleansing cherry pit acidity with a persistent trail of graphite, dark cocoa and Dutch liquorice.

Latta Vino “Quality Release” Grenache 2021

$299.00

Winery: Latta Vino

Region: Pyrenees - Victoria

Winemaker: Owen Latta

Varietal(s): 100% Grenache

Third release of this straight Grenache from Owen Latta, sourced from organic Shay's Flat vineyard in Landsborough, Pyrenees. Wild and pure, or purely wild, this is a beautiful light to medium bodied punchy red, replete with pepper, brown spices and bouncy red berry fruits. Traces of herbal funk and kombucha-esque zing are there but this is a drinking wine of high interest.

"The subtitle name ‘Quality Release’ is so outstanding. What a cool name. SO much better than Premium or Reserve. Kudos to you, Owen Latta and co. From Shay’s Flat (organic) vineyard, sees no additions, no sulphur, wild ferment, no filter/fining. All grenache from Central Vic, all day. Has this cherry jam, slightly medicinal thing going on, but none of that troubles as it’s all juicy gravy good times and has a pretty and fresh vibe with drinkability riding high. Woody spice, not oak, but stems and undergrowth and such, play a part in the flavours here. So too does a kind of meaty, game-like quality. It rolls around the palate softly, broad, lush in a way, but vibrant. Hedonistic but kind of loose and free. Moreish in the definitive sense – compels you to drink more. Not a fine, preened version of grenache, but so much mojo and individuality." - Mike Bennie (The Wine Front)
