Sami-Odi Hoffmann Dallwitz Syrah 2016

The Barossa is the home of Shiraz in Australia, and is the place that has seen most of the country’s famous Shiraz come to life. A lot of truly spectacular wines have emerged from this region. However, more recently there has been one man who is doing his own thing, pushing for ever-more pure and balanced wines: Fraser McKinley.In the past, Fraser worked with the Standish Wine Company and Torbreck Vintners, but in 2006 he embarked on a totally new project. He started a small winery that goes by the curious name of Sami-Odi, producing minuscule quantities of Syrah (he doesn’t say Shiraz!) of the highest order. He doesn’t just doesn’t make generic wines of the Barossa, but he carefully selects plots in some of the valley’s finest vineyards and vinifies them separately to create a cuvée, thus combining their strengths.Sami Odi is one of the most challenging producers to secure, it takes on average 7 years to get on the mailing list and receive an allocation. Over the years, our team were some of the first in the industry to support Fraser Mckinley project and we have a nice collection for you to explore. The Little Wine is our favourite wine from the range, it's a unique concept, blending three vintages in one.
