Tasting Notes

Aroma

Aromas of pure red and dark cherry, blackberry and Doris plum fruits with hints of mixed spice, sage, peppercorn, roast meats, licorice, crushed stone, violets, dark chocolate and cold tea.

Appearance

Deep crimson.

Palate

There is a savoury lean on the palate, but that fruit is juicy and pure, showing itself with clarity and detail. Fine-grained tannins, too, all powdery and rocky, with some nice chew and just the right amount of structural heft.

Vinification

With Block 12 harvested on 12th April and Block 40 harvested on the 22nd of April. Both Blocks lay on an easterly aspect with shallow rocky soils, yielding very low at under 2 tonnes per acre. The fruit was fermented in 5 tonne open fermenters and matured in new and 1-2 year old French oak Barriques, Puncheons and one new Fouderie Francois oak cask.

Winemakers Comments

Mountadam Vineyards High Eden series is the selection of the best parcels of fruit from the Estate. ‘Walter’, formerly known as the ‘Patriarch, is a small and subtle tribute to the Brown family’s contribution to Mountadams legacy. The wine is named after Jennis’s father, Walter Small. Traditionally known as the best Shiraz from the Estate the 2022 vintage saw this wine sourced from the oldest plantings on the estate in Block 12 and Block 40.
