2021 Signature ‘Old China Hand’ Syrah

Des Inglis, father of Sidewood founder Owen, first left Adelaide for Hong Kong in 1933 at the age of three and never left. To celebrate his 90th birthday and his life as a part of Hong Kong’s establishment as well as a much loved father, grandfather and great grandfather we released this very special wine, The ‘Old China Hand’ Syrah. A single clone (PT15), single vineyard shiraz grown from the free draining, mineral rich soils of Sidewood’s Ironstone Road vineyard in Echunga, Adelaide Hills. Enticingly bright fresh berry flavours, mulberry, raspberry and dark chocolate, leather and tightly coiled tannins lead to a long, enduring finish.
