98 Points - Philip Rich | Very Limited Stocks
Serrat is the family winery of Yabby Lake winemaker Tom Carson and partner Nadege Suné. Serrat has 8,800 vines per hectare - more than four times the average density, however their vines carry only a few bunches each. Remarkably, it takes one vine to produce each bottle of Serrat wine; these are genuine, hand-crafted wines of the highest quality.
Serrat Shiraz Viognier has gained a huge following in recent years on the back of some extraordinary high praise and our extremely limited stocks of the 2024 Serrat Shiraz Viognier release are sure to sell out fast. Another breathtakingly beautiful Yarra Valley red wine; showing remarkable intensity of flavour, balance and approachability that makes it difficult to put down.
"98 Points. Best’s old-block clone (70%) and BVRC15 clone (30%). 5% whole bunches; co-fermented with 5% viognier. Matured in 500L French oak (25% new). A deep, bright purple. Brooding and complex with aromas of black cherry, graphite, black pepper and dark licorice scents. You can add some subtle, oak-derived pencil shavings and crushed violets to the mix, too! On the palate, this is simultaneously concentrated, silky and beautifully structured. An alluring and altogether lovely wine that is destined to age gracefully over the next decade or more. 13.5% alc. Drink: 2025 - 2035"- Philip Rich, Halliday Wine Companion.
