2024 Talus Shiraz
Nestled in the foothills of the 400-million-year-old granite massif is Mount Langi Ghiran. Over time, the forces of Mother Nature have cast rock fragments to the base of the mountain creating a formation we know as Talus. The Talus range is an expression of the unique soils at Mount Langi Ghiran, reflecting our intimate knowledge of vine, soil and mountain. The 2022 Talus Shiraz showcases an elegant tannin structure, with thyme and rosemary peeking through the concentrated berry flavours.

Slowly, slowly, Talus does a tantalising reveal. First, the upfront splash of ripe black fruits, sweet blueberries, a few pinches of spice seasoning, a hint of vanillin and florals, followed by cocoa and warm cedary oak. Then, the Grampians regional signature of Aussie bush, bay leaf, mint and wild herbs comes into full view. As it gathers pace, firm tannins lead the way through to a long, peppery finish. It is early days, but there is a world of promise awaiting with further cellaring. What a delight.
