Dark Corner Durif Shiraz 2022

As you’d expect from a wine dominated by Durif, this is a whopper of a red. It was carefully crafted in the darkest corner of the cellar. Why? Because it’s the special project of rising star winemaker David Joeky and he didn’t want anyone to take a look or taste it until he was absolutely ready. So every evening, after the rest of the crew had left, David would retire to the furthest corner of the cellar, where he’d stationed his special tanks of dark, spicy Durif and ripest, peppery Shiraz. We think he’s ‘blended a blinder’ as the locals say. "Nose of blackcurrant, juicy black cherry, smoky chocolate undertones. Luscious fruit on the palate ... and mouthwatering freshness. A seductive Shiraz with a mellow texture. Delicious and structured" (Gilbert & Gaillard).
