Our newly bottled 2024 JOSEPH reds have just arrived in the cellar.
The 2024 harvest will go down as one of the landmark red vintages I’ve seen in McLaren Vale and the Adelaide Hills.A mild winter and relatively dry spring set up small, concentrated berries across McLaren Vale and Adelaide. Warm, dry conditions through ripening delivered rich flavours, fine tannins and remarkable depth across the our red varieties.
For our JOSEPH reds, these conditions were ideal.
The 2024 JOSEPH Moda is deeply concentrated and powerful, with rich blackcurrant fruit, dark cocoa and the signature raisin complexity that comes from our Amarone-inspired “Moda” method.
The 2024 Angel Gully Shiraz captures the cooler Clarendon hills at their best - layered dark fruits, spice and structure, with the depth and poise to reward many years in the cellar.
Meanwhile, our 2024 Nebbiolo from the Adelaide Hills is one of the most perfumed we’ve made, showing classic rose, Turkish Delight and spice characters with a long, dry finish.
All three wines were made using our traditional open-topped fermentation approach - we believe the soul of a red wine is released where air meets the fermenting skins.
I’m very proud of these wines, and I believe they capture the character of an exceptional South Australian vintage.
