About this wine
THE STANDISH WINE COMPANY The Schubert Theorem Shiraz, Barossa Valley
Dan Standish is indisputably one of the Barossa’s most celebrated Shiraz producers now. Joe Czerwinski has deemed him, ‘the reigning king of Barossa Shiraz’. An alumni of Torbreck, Standish’s Shiraz expressions are outstanding expressions of a region defined by this wine. The Schubert Theorem is an appropriately powerful composition, made from vines planted over 100 years ago in the Vine Vale region.
Standish himself likens The Schubert Theorem to the wines of the Northern Rhône. It is basket-pressed and aged in French oak for 30 months. Inky, deep purple juice is as intense as it looks. Rich Black Forest fruit and aniseed marry with spice, earth and dark chocolate on the nose. The palate is decadent and opulent, rich with juicy black fruits, plum and liquorice. This is a superbly concentrated wine, the structure showcasing exceptional fruit purity. The finish is incredibly long and powerful—if only it could go on forever.

Blue and purple fruits, a fair bit of spicy biscuity oak, ground coffee, some floral top notes. Thick, earthy, coffee-laced and dark fruited, very dense and packed, tannin has a compact but slightly rugged feel, saline and spicy finish of length and grip. A shag-pile carpet of a wine. Needs a fair bit of time.

Impressive black purple colour. Scents of clove-mahogany wood over dark berries, plum, espresso and liquorice. Quite a firm, drying wine, wood spice a strong feature, arrowroot biscuit and tobacco characters to taste, dark berries in the mix, finishes drying, firm and clove-like/salty with spice. A bit distracted by the drying, gummy-woody finish. Good feel, depth, generally. One for later rather than now.

I think this had the reputation for impenetrable beast last year… but I really don’t see that this year. It is velvety svelte and plush with a midnight core of fruit and tannin. Like a blackhole in space the fruit, spice and tannin swirl in and out of each other’s grooves, this is not placid or still, this is ever-moving, intense and black. The nose is pretty – leafy cassis, raspberry, salted liquorice and dark cocoa. It could be the choice of audio currently (Action Bronson) but there’s a capoeira agility to this wine… it’s lithe and flexible with layers of muscly tannin and lean fruit. There is no point at which the seams that connect the fruit, acid and tannin are able to be unpicked or loosened. Already now it is seamless. It is clear that this wine will chill out in time, its compressed layers will start to expand and fill out. The length of flavour ensures its long life. Epic. Big. Long. Super impressive again. Savoury edge – minerally and exciting. 14.9%alc
