2021 Combes Over the Hill Syrah
Description
WINEMAKER: Oscar Hermann
REGION: Yarra Valley, VIC
VARIETAL: Syrah
VITICULTURE: Organic
"Perfumed Syrah, slinky and soulful, from the Syme on Yarra vineyard in Gruyere. Fermented in all of its unadulterated whole-bunch glory for two weeks, pressed, finished in tank, then transferred to old oak for nine months. It’s a savoury offering perfect for the dinner table, showing incense, cracked pepper, purple fruit tones and a smattering of dried herbs." - Oscar
Oscar Hermann cut his teeth at Melbourne's City Wine Shop before quickly establishing himself as a highly regarded winemaker in his own right. His wines are detailed, precise and truly speak of place, showcasing the vineyards from which he carefully sources his fruit, as well as a vineyard he recently leased in St Andrew with vines dating back to 1995.

Born in Newtown
Nestled in the vibrant heart of Newtown – We created SPÖN as a cozy neighbourhood bottle shop and wine bar that feels relaxed, welcoming and distinctly its own. Creative, a little gritty, a little playful and always full of something new & unexpected — just like Newtown.
A bottle shop with a bar problem.
SPÖN - a discovery-led hybrid bottle-shop/Wine bar experience. Browse the shelves, grab a bottle and drink it at the bar — or pull up a stool and explore a daily rotating board of over 15+ distinct wines being poured by the glass. SPÖN is built around drinking what interests you.
Come curious. Leave with a new favourite.
We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
