Excellent drinking; best in youth.

About The Wine
The excellent value in the Express Winemakers range continues here from young Ryan O'Meara.
This is made from one of Ryan's longest-standing vineyard partnerships, a site he farms right on the Southern tip of WA. It produces distinctive Shiraz flavours - meaty, gamey yet with vibrant fruit flavours. This year it shows a lovely seductive perfume - it's a true 'Syrah' style, more in the vein of something our of cooler-climates in Europe than a classic Aussie Shiraz.
It makes for great drinking with some interesting points of difference to its South Australian varietal counterparts.
About Express Winemakers
Express Winemakers is Ryan O'Meara's pint-sized wine operation from the deep south of WA.
From kicking off in 2011, Ryan has assembled a group of top-flight vineyards from around the Great Southern that supply him with top-flight fruit to make his fun and creative range of wines.
There's some serious value to be had in the Express range, from funky & skinsy whites, through spicy cool-climate reds and everything in between.
Express Winemakers is a terrific example of the ever-rising tidal wave of young and adventurous WA producers reinventing the west!
