On every bottle
Every bottle comes with a card
One side tells you what to eat with it and what it tastes like. The other side is empty — write a note and the bottle becomes a present.
The front
What to eat with it
Two dishes that work with this wine, two flavours you'll notice, and the right temperature to pour it. No wine-speak.
The back
Room for your note
Lines for a name, a few words and your signature. Have it sent straight to someone and they get a card you wrote, not a packing slip.
Included with every bottle.

Why it's on our shelf
Soumah's Hexham Syrah is a deliberate argument: that the Yarra Valley can produce cool-climate Syrah that belongs in the same conversation as the Northern Rhône. Brett Butcher founded the winery in 1997 with exactly this ambition, and he deliberately calls it Syrah. Three clones from the Hexham vineyard, hand-picked, 18 months in 500L French oak. Dark cherry, violet, cracked pepper, tobacco, leather. The 2021 is compact and focused — still improving, SWA Gold, and making the case clearly.
