Standish - The Standish Shiraz:

Der 'The Standish Shiraz' steht majestätisch und tiefschwarz mit dunkelvioletten Reflexen im Glas. Extrem sauber und brilliant.

Aus dem Glas erheben sich kraftvolle Aromen von reifen Himbeeren, Brombeeren, dunklen Pflaumen und Lakritz, die von dunklen Schokoladenraspeln und subtilen Anklängen von getrockneten Nelken überlagert werden. Komplexe Elemente von leicht getoasteter Eiche mit feinstem Vanilleextrakt, erdigen Noten und Gewürzen.

Verführerisch reichhaltig und fluffig beim Eintritt am Gaumen, um sich dann nach und nach zu einer zunehmend robusteren Tanninstruktur aufzubauen, die auch den letzten Winkel des Gaumens erfasst. Dazwischen verbirgt sich ein unglaublich kraftvoller Kern aus üppigen Himbeeren, Brombeeren, dunklen Pflaumen und Schokoladenkugeln mit subtilen Noten von rauchigem Zedernholz und Vanille in seiner feinsten Form. Erdige Untertöne, eine feine Mineralik und orientalische Gewürze gesellen sich dazu. Die hervorragende Intensität und Tiefe in Verbindung mit einer graziösen Eleganz lassen diesen Wein hell erstrahlen.

Der verführerische und äußerst imposante 'The Standish Shiraz' hat ein sehr langes Leben vor sich.

"The 2020 The Standish Shiraz was made with fruit from the Laycock family vineyard, in Greenock. The first vintage was 1999. This vintage saw 30% whole bunches in the ferment. It offers notes of red dirt, a bit of blood, salted heirloom tomato and satsuma plum. This is concentrated, compacted, plush, dense and muscular, with notes of ras el’hanout, allspice, torched cinnamon and salted Dutch licorice. This wine is like playing "Magic Eye." There’s a lot going on, but if you relax, a pattern emerges and the detail becomes obvious for all to see. Within the fine but plushly tannic frame, there is saltbush and bay leaf, exotic spice and cascading layers of berry fruits. The dirt in which the roots are entangled similarly shows its colors—and these are red, ochre, earth and dust. At first glance, the foolish and the rash will overlook this for being singularly muscular and full-bodied, but like all the best IYKYK (if you know, you know—wink wink) scenarios, there is far more than meets the palate here. Another blockbuster Standish." - Wine Advocate

2020 The Standish Shiraz

"Amazing aromas of metal shavings, cloves, spices, and black and blue fruits. Violets, too. Full-bodied with creamy tannins. Cured meat with iron earth. Almost slatey. Very sophisticated and classy. Drinkable, but this is one to age ideally for a minimum of five years. Try after 2027."

"The 2021 The Standish Shiraz was made with fruit from the Laycock family vineyard, Greenock, with 30% whole bunches in the ferment. The Standish Shiraz was the first cuvée launched by Dan Standish in 1999, and the wine is routinely typified by its muscular tannin shape and earthy, savory fruit. The most attractive part of this wine is the splay of exotic market spice (namely sumac, black pepper, star anise and fresh cardamom) that sails in on the coattails of the red/purple fruit. It has all the exoticism and romance of a hike through the mountains of Morocco, yet it, perhaps more than any other wine in the collection, speaks of the Barossa in a clear enunciated voice. So, where does it fit in 2021? The 2021 The Standish Shiraz is finer, prettier and lighter than I have ever seen it at this stage of its life. It has all the spice and Barossan identity that is expected; however, it misses the dense baritone of fruit that is present in earlier iterations. Whether you think that is a positive or not is up to you—I am fond of this wine throughout all its incarnations. Vintage variation is responsible for the spark of curiosity and joy that I experience every year during this release, and the real triumph in 2021 is the ability of the vineyard (this vineyard) to shine through the season that shaped it. 14.9% alcohol." - Wine Advocate
