Expert Review
Dave Brookes
Winemaker Amelia Nolan notes that 2022 was a cool, compressed vintage that shows a little more restraint and elegance compared to the exuberance of 2021. Certified organic and biodynamic shiraz from blocks 23 (87%), 5 and 6 (8%) and Polygon 14 (5%); 85% whole bunches, fermented in concrete tulips (P14 went into foudre) and matured for six months before blending. It's a pure, wonderfully spicy and nicely composed wine with a buzzy, mineral energy, citrus blossom top notes, powdery tannins and an effortless sense of drinkability.

The 2022 Kin Shiraz is lithe, febrile and savory, with a splash of chalky tannins throughout. Liquid, dappled and peppered with a profusion of black spice (clove, star anise, peppercorns, dried tobacco), the wine has clarity and form. It will not be for everyone. Not a "classic Barossa Shiraz," it is the Alkina take, and the distinctive house style is a pleasure to witness, even in these "entry-level" wines. This is excellent. It fermented and matured in concrete tulips that were airlifted through the roof frame in the winery. A thing of beauty. 14.2% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.
