About Winemaker
Working exclusively with shiraz from the revered Hoffmann Vineyard for his label, Sami-Odi, Fraser McKinley has reframed the possibilities of what Barossa wine can be. Sourced from small plots of vines (some significantly old), which he tends with organic principles, his wines are made using only whole bunches, with no adds bar a touch of sulphur. Blending across sites, barrels and even vintages, McKinley remakes the puzzle of components in surprising ways, creating wines that tell stories of time, place and people. He was crowned Young Gun of Wine in 2014.
After completing a bachelor’s degree in Spatial Design, Fine Art & Design at home in Auckland, Fraser McKinley moved to Sydney. After a brief trip to the Barossa, working vintage, his career was irrevocably tilted towards wine – a not unfamiliar story. His winemaking apprenticeship was at Torbreck and the Standish Wine Co., with over a decade spent as an assistant winemaker between the two. And while both of those makers have shaped McKinley’s skills, his own Sami-Odi bottlings walk with distinctly less Barossa swagger.
"Fraser McKinley has nailed the cooler 2023 vintage with his Hoffmann Dallwitz release. It's essential; as in it presents itself as a pure essence of northern Barossa syrah with the characteristic Ebenezer compression and a sense of detail that only comes with an obsession for site expression and the craft of gentle winemaking. It's concentrated and presents with impressive fruit density, but there's a beautiful energy and freshness to its form. As always, the fruit is pure and perfectly poised; black cherry, blackberry, boysenberry and blue fruits. The cut of spice is deep and exotic, floral flecks and raspberry pip lift, a glimpse of dried herbs, dried meats and violets in the rear-view mirror with an earthen overtone with compact, powdery tannins as the wine fades out. Superb."
