Max & Me Boongarrie Vineyard Syrah 2021 from Eden Valley is a vibrant, aromatic Syrah with cool‑climate lift and fine structure, showing the precision of elevated, carefully farmed fruit. This Boongarrie Vineyard Syrah 2021 delivers a delicious mix of bright fruit, spice and savoury detail that will appeal to modern Syrah lovers.

In the glass, you’ll find satsuma plum, boysenberry and blueberry wrapped in green peppercorn, anise, olive tapenade, cocoa and a gentle herbal note, all carried on bright acidity and powdery, fine tannins. It sits medium‑bodied, energetic and harmonious, drinking beautifully now but with the stuffing to improve over the next decade.

On the table it’s a winner with grilled lamb cutlets, herby sausages, slow‑cooked lamb or beef ragù, as well as roast chicken, charred eggplant, mushroom dishes and hard cheeses. Serve it just a touch cool to highlight the perfume and spice, or give it a brief decant to draw out its more savoury layers.
