Description

  • Black Doris plum
  • Spiced cherry
  • Floral notes
  • Almond characters

"Attractively fruited and beautifully ripe, the inviting bouquet shows Black Doris plum, spiced cherry, floral, olive and almond characters. The palate is equally appealing with succulent fruit intensity and plump mouthfeel, well supported by silky texture and fine tannins, leading to a long, comforting finish. At its best: now to 2021" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Mar 2019

Deep red purple colour, intense black fruit aromas combined with a hint of spice. Tannins are smooth and sweet, round and soft with persistent finish. Beautiful single vineyard wine.

This is the best Syrah, at a reasonable price, that I have purchased for a long time.

3.5/4 really. Quality HB syrah and a match for most Aussie versions. Good value. 17/20.

Delicious

To much new oak for my taste. It has to be left open for 24 hrs So the oak doesent become the prdominant flavour. Otherwise nice dry spicy drop
