Soumah, Syrah Hexham Single Vineyard, 2024

Soumah’s Syrah Hexham Single Vineyard 2024 is a finely focused cool-climate red that showcases the elegance and spice Syrah can achieve in the Yarra Valley. Sourced from a single vineyard, it offers clarity of fruit, savoury complexity, and a distinctly site-driven character that reflects Soumah’s reputation for refined, modern Australian wines.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically presents a deep ruby core with vibrant purple hues, hinting at freshness and youthful energy. The nose is lifted and layered, with dark berries, black pepper, violets, and savoury spice, often supported by subtle earthy and smoky nuances. On the palate, expect a medium-bodied wine with bright dark-fruit flavours, fine tannins, and a lively line of acidity that keeps everything balanced and precise. The finish is usually long and savoury, with peppery spice and mineral tension; while enjoyable young, this style should also reward a few years in bottle.

Production
The Hexham Single Vineyard bottling comes from a carefully selected site designed to express the nuances of its terroir, with the vineyard’s cool-climate conditions contributing to aromatic lift and natural freshness. Soumah is known for thoughtful vineyard management and precise harvesting, with fruit typically picked at optimal ripeness to preserve acidity and detail. Fermentation and maturation are handled to highlight purity of fruit and the variety’s spicy, savoury profile, rather than masking it with excessive oak.

Food & Serving
This Syrah pairs beautifully with lamb, grilled sausages, roast duck, mushroom dishes, and Mediterranean-inspired fare with herbs and charred vegetables. Serve slightly below room temperature, around 16–18°C, and decant for 30–60 minutes if drinking young to help the aromas open up.

Producer
Soumah is a respected Yarra Valley producer widely recognised for crafting elegant wines that draw inspiration from the great cool-climate regions of France and Italy while remaining distinctly Australian. The winery has built a strong reputation for quality, site expression, and varietal precision, with its single-vineyard wines particularly valued for their authenticity and finesse.
