Hand picked from the Dead Morris vineyard and co-fermented with 9% petit verdot, this wine was matured for 14 months in 36% new fine-grain Taransaud French oak barriques. A choir of purple-clad gospel singers harmonise through bilberries, blackberries and cherries. There is a swirl of lilac and caraway seed spice that echoes throughout. Acidity is fine-tuned to the powdery, silt-like tannins. It is vibrant, with more savoury, sappy richness this vintage than in the past. This is one hell of a memorable wine. Drink now if you need to taste to believe, and then put a case away for decades to come. -Shanteh Wale – 97 Points, Halliday Wine Companion, published 19 June 2025

About the Winery

Among his many pursuits, Doug Balnaves was a shearer of Merino sheep. The Tally, recorded every two hours, reflected his skill and hard work. The Balnaves family view “The Tally” as the ultimate achievement for their company.
