Description

"It is elegantly lifted on the nose showing cranberry, dark plum, floral and subtle spice aromas, followed by a juicy palate that is gently weighted and rounded. The wine offers bright fruit flavours as well as subtle savoury complexity, leading to a lingering smooth finish. Friendly and easy to enjoy" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Mar 2019

Deep crimson in colour with bright berry fruit, violet and savoury pepper aromas. The palate tastes of plums, fruit spice and wild herbs, complimented by silky smooth tannins. This is a supple wine with real drinkability.

Hawke’s Bay enjoyed another settled season in 2017. Grapes were harvested towards the end of April, as is normal for Syrah. The combination of Hawke’s Bay soils and climate produce a pure expression of Syrah.

The grapes were gently destemmed leaving a percentage of whole berries in the ferment. We used open top fermenters with regular plunging, then it was gently pressed and post malo aged with oak.
