Tasting Notes:

A fragrant blend of blackberry and blueberry fruit, licorice, violets, bay-leaf and spice are further complexed by a subtle flint and cordite nuance. A wine of incredible power, line and finesse that belies its medium body. Upfront silky blackberry and blueberry fruit marries with black pepper, river rock and spicy black olive, complementing subtle mineral gunflint notes and charry oak. Regional graphite tannins focus the wine and provide a framework on which it will comfortably age and develop in the decades to come.

Technical:

Released in small quantities and only in exceptional years, St Peters is Seppelt’ s flagship shiraz, testimony to the distinctive style and pedigree of Grampians shiraz. The lineage of this iconic wine dates back to 1964, when ‘great western hermitage’, as it was then known, was first made. Since 1998 this wine has been called St Peters in honour of the first vineyard planted in the region.

Today, St Peters is sourced from the finest and most intense fruit from the best blocks of our great western vineyard. In vintage 2021, this included select parcels from the bass Arrawatta and imperial blocks. It is a powerful and seductive expression of Shiraz from the Great Western region with extraordinary cellaring potential of 50 years or more. This wine is classified ‘excellent’ by Langton’s in its classification of Australian wine VII.

The Grampians experienced above average rainfall across the growing season with particularly large rainfalls occurring in January. This pushed out the typical ripening window and combined with unseasonably cool and dry ripening conditions in February and March, allowed for slow and steady flavour development in the fruit. Despite smaller tonnes, in part due to hail damage early in the season, quality in 2022 was excellent and saw superb, regionally definitive wines produced.

Accolades & Awards:

98 Point Rated Ray Jordan WinePilot 

"At the risk of repeating myself, this is one of my very favourite Australian Shiraz. I love it. Always have. Love the perfumed aromatics that get things started. Vibrant ripe cherry and blackberry notes, with a liberal coating of dark chocolate. Traces of cracked black pepper and graphite emerge with breathing. Managing the oak is fundamental to St Peters and winemaker Clare Dry uses an old French vat, older barriques and just 24% new oak. Interestingly, Dry also uses a small amount of whole bunch ferment which appears as the slightly flinty palate characters. Another cracking good wine. Drink to: 2024-2049"

97 Point Rated Huon Hooke The Real Review 

"Very deep, dense, saturated purple colour; browned spices galore on the nose, dried herbs and smokiness too, with an earthy/tarry overtone that is distinctively Great Western. The wine is very full bodied and powerful, with concentrated flavour that persists for an eternity on the finish. Tannins are lavish and ripely supple, with a lick of licorice, blackberry and black pepper at the finish, all shrouded by the serious structure. A smashing shiraz."

96 Point Rated Campbell Mattinson The Wine Front 

"There's the good news, and there's the great news. The first good news is that this release is outstanding. This is an outstanding St Peters Shiraz. It's open for business, for sure, but it has the structure and length to carry it for many years. It tastes of black pepper, bacon, sweet plums, redcurrant, bay laves and smoked cherries, with sweet spice, hazelnut and cedarwood notes also contributing. It's plush, generous and eager to please, within a spicy-peppery context, but the tannin is finely etched and the length of the palate is excellent. Alcohol: 14.5%; Price: $80; Closure: Screwcap; Drink: 2020-2028"

95 Point Rated Jeni Port Halliday Wine Companion 

"A blend of fruit off four blocks in Seppelt Great Western vineyards. Fermentation includes whole bunch (10%), maturation in French oak (24% new). The second St. Peters release under Clare Dry, who has instigated a reduced new oak regime, allowing beautifully fragrant, compelling fruit to shine. Demands your attention in heady scents of wildflower, bay leaf, black cherry, blackberry and spice. Keeps the momentum up with complexity on the rise and the odd side step into savouriness, as the palate unwinds in peppery black fruits, woodsy earth and Grampians-led bright spices."
