Timo Mayer – Syrah

This Timo Mayer Syrah is an AWESOME WINE that shows the beauty of whole bunch maceration, where stemmyness is a true beauty – this is the best example we ever had!

Watch the review of this and the close planted pinot noir here:

From AustralianWine.com> A self-proclaimed German farmer with a warm smile and eccentric mind, Timo left the traditional wine region where he was born and raised for Australia’s Yarra Valley.

Over the past couple of decades he’s helped lead the charge for elegant, interesting, complex wines that reflect the Yarra Valley’s cool climate, influencing a generation of young winemakers. These days he’s still pushing boundaries, experimenting with new varieties and throwing convention to the wind.

This one is 100% Syrah taken from his Bloody Hill vineyard, with his usual stalky whole bunch fermention.
