Koomilya GT Block Shiraz 2022

97 POINTS

Marcus Ellis - Halliday Wine Companion

The Koomilya shiraz trio tends to follow a similar pattern, showing distinctly different characters from three blocks in Upper Tintara so near to each other. The GT Block is usually the most fragrant, lithe and lifted and, while that is true, it is also true that this seems to have gone up in intensity and depth. The distinctive kelp, nori, dried violet and black tea notes are there, but there seems a deeper, more thrumming heartbeat this vintage, a core of dark minerals and spice. There’s also tapenade, pomegranate molasses, a hint of musk, even. Tannins are expertly extracted and this is made for the long haul. Outstanding.

Gary Walsh - The Wine Front

Always the distinctly different wine of the trio of Shiraz. Blackcurrant, boysenberry, a musky pink perfume, nori, black olive and a little pepper and spice. It’s medium-bodied, succulent in juicy cherry and dark fruit, a little savoury too, supple in fine powdery tannin, and bright and long to close. Such a good and interesting expression of Shiraz.
