After spending more than a decade honing his skills at Shaw and Smith, Darryl Catlin is now creating his own unique style of award-winning wines under his own label. In 2016, his winery was recognised by James Halliday as one of the “Top 10 Best New Wineries”.
A banner vintage for South Australian Shiraz/Syrah, the 2015 Catlin Black Label Syrah comes from the Adelaide Hills' highly regarded Longview Vineyard. Made with up to 40% whole bunches, the wine displays remarkable texture and structure. Layers of plum and spice open up, as fine grained tannins from the whole bunches extend the palate, with a mouthfeel and flavour that continue long after the last sip. 95 points, James Halliday Wine Companion.
