Luke Lambert Syrah 2022
Luke Lambert Syrah 2022
Peppery and spicy, but offset with juiciness of blueberry and blackcurrant. Light to medium bodied, glassy acidity, gentle tug of graphite tannin through its length, spice and violet perfume on the finish. There’s no bulk here: it’s been chiseled to perfection. Wonderful intricate Shiraz.

Luke Lambert is one of the young guns of the Yarra Valley. His wines are distinctly ‘old world’ in style, with his philosophy being all about wines reflecting their place and terroir, and of minimal intervention in the winery.
Luke Lambert graduated from CSUs wine science course in 2002, aged 23, cramming in winemaking experience at Mount Pleasant, Coldstream Hills, Mount Prior, Poets Corner, Palliser Estate in Martinborough, and Badia di Morrona in Chianti. He purchases grapes from quality-conscious growers in the Yarra Valley and Heathcote. He has now settled in the Yarra Valley, leasing slightly less than 1 hectare of Heathcote nebbiolo, and larger amounts of Yarra Valley shiraz and nebbiolo. The wines are wild yeast-fermented and bottled without fining or filtration.
