Luke Lambert Syrah, Yarra Valley 2022

93 Points Vinous

The stunning 2022 Syrah is super-stylish, with a modern, fresh edge. It delivers up a powerful yet refined core of mulberry and blackberry, with toasted spices and stalky dried herbs well matched to a backbone of fine French oak. Fantastic energy follows, the whole-bunchy herbs providing a youthful, compact shape to meaty, spicy and violet flavors, all supported by sturdy tannins. There’s a confidence and composure here that will serve this wine well for at least a decade.
