Cloudbreak Nouveau Adelaide Hills Syrah 2023

Enjoy a Gold-winning, 93pt small batch, savoury-style Adelaide Hills Syrah. Cloudbreak is a passion project.of Jack Tomich,a third generation winemaker, Jack established Cloudbreak to break away from his family’s traditional style of winemaking at Tomich Wines and experiment with new styles and ideas.“Shiraz from the Adelaide Hills, or Syrah as it is often dubbed to differentiate it from the big, bold Barossa and McLaren Vale gems, is often a more savoury style, gamey and fragrant. And this is what we have here..., this is the pick of the litter... lifted aromas, cherries, leather, smoked meats, cloves, raspberries and animal skins. Supple and seamless, there are satiny tannins and a fine line of bright acidity. This is an elegant style with a lingering and persistent finish. Delicious. Good drinking for the next six to eight years. 93pts” (Ken Gargett, WinePilot). For Mike Bennie in thge Halliday Wine Companion, this is "“A soft and squishy syrah that has all the right moves for accessible red wine, and varietal personality to boot! Woody spices, sweet spices, a touch of game meat, red cherry, raspberry licorice and a little dark chocolate. There's a twang of lemon and blood orange in there, too, which feels fresh and yet a touch distracting. But all up this is frisky and easy to drink and just a little fancy. 91pts".
