2019 Iggy Forreston Adelaide Hills Syrah 1.5L Magnum

The 2019 Iggy Forreston Syrah is a rare magnum release (1.5L) from the cool-climate vineyards of Forreston, Adelaide Hills. Crafted with a minimal-intervention philosophy, this Syrah expresses purity, precision, and site-driven character. On the nose, it opens with aromas of wild blackberries, cracked pepper, black olive, violet, and forest herbs. The palate is medium-bodied yet deeply concentrated, with dark plum, savoury spice, and a fine mineral thread running through. Whole bunch fermentation adds aromatic lift and a gentle stemmy complexity, balanced by silky tannins and fresh acidity. Bottled unfined and unfiltered, this Syrah is a vibrant expression of Adelaide Hills terroir—age-worthy, yet already seductive in magnum format.
