Critics Scores
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2012 Mullineux Granite Syrah is 100 whole-bunch fermented and raised in 50 new oak. It has a sublime, mineral bouquet with fine tension with blackberry, dark plum, wet stone and touches of candied orange peel. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, crisp acidity, fine grip with quite a pointed, assertive boysenberry and peaty finish. This is a very fine Syrah, although this year it is outclassed by the Schist.
Vinous
Dark ruby-red. Sexy, very ripe aromas of candied blueberry, flint, woodsmoke and Christmas spices. Lush, broad and fine-grained; shows an almost candied cherry quality but comes across as nicely dry (there's actually 2.9 g/l r.s. here). Finishes with smooth tannins and lovely lingering perfume. Superb Syrah for drinking young or a decade down the road.
