"Thoroughly charming and a smart buy, seamlessly and seductively combining Eden Valley top notes of black pepper and florals with the savoury, earthy cep powder and chocolate loam complexity of the Western Ranges. Lovely complexity and layering, with joyous, juicy blackberry, bilberry and blueberry fruit, cool mineral acidity, a shower of gunpowder tannins, then cut finger notes and charcuterie oak undertones to the finish." - Sarah Ahmed
Wine Advocate: 96 Points
"The 2022 The Struie is composed of 79% Barossa Valley and 21% Eden Valley fruit. It is impenetrably dense in the glass and aromatic and rich in the mouth. It's totally concentrated with impressive flavor penetration on the palate. This is an epic wine, as usual, and at $55 AUD, it represents sensational premium Barossa Shiraz drinking. It's all velvet and volume, with detail and varietal definition. It could only come from one place on the planet, as it speaks as much to its red dirt origins as it does to the variety, Shiraz. 15% alcohol, sealed under cork and wax."
Wine Enthusiast: 95 Points
"A velvety, supple shiraz from both Barossa and Eden Valleys that oozes plum and blackberry jam appeal, with a lick of baking spice behind. It's as luxurious in texture as it is in aroma and flavor, the ripe tannins seamlessly tucked behind all the plush fruit, and a little alcohol heat creeping in and landing on the finish. The comparatively cool 2022 vintage makes for highly age-worthy wines and Struie is no exception. Drink 2025-2037." — Christina Pickard
