THE STORY WINES MOYSTON HILLS SYRAH 2021

Style: Spicy & Bright

Over the years I have come across winemakers with degrees in atomic science, doctors with specialties spanning every human condition, town planners, sculptors and painters, and Rory Lane adds yet another to the list: a degree in ancient Greek literature. He says that after completing his degree, and desperately wanting to delay an entry into the real world, I stumbled across and enrolled in a postgraduate wine technology and marketing course at Monash University, where I soon became hooked on ... the wondrous connection between land, human and liquid. JAMES HALLIDAY

As a rule The Story buys grapes in, usually on the back of long term relationships, but this wine comes from Rory Lane's first venture into vineyard ownership. He's bought grapes from this vineyard in the past, though over the past 10+ years it's largely been contracted to Mount Langi Ghiran. He's now running the vineyard organically. Exciting times. This release saw 30% whole bunches, wild ferment, three weeks on skins and maturation in 3000 litre foudre.
