Leveret Estate Hawke's Bay Syrah 2020
Description
- Integrated oak
- Summer berries
- Vanilla & smoke
- Spicy tannins
A fantastic example of Hawke's Bay Syrah with a floral nose of iris and lavender with fresh juicy red Summer berries and well-integrated oak, giving aromas of vanilla and smoke. A well-balanced palate with Black Doris plum and fig. Tannins are spicy giving great length and structure. This wine is drinking well now but can be cellared for up to 10 years +.
The grapes were harvested from the Tantallon vineyard and transported to our Riverview winery where they were crushed to open topped stainless steel fermentation vessels and inoculated using predominantly the RX60 yeast strain. The ferments were hand plunged several times per day until dry and then allowed from 2 to 14 days extended maceration. The wine was then pressed off the skins and put to barrel where it was aged for 12 months before blending. The wine was then transported by road tanker to our Katikati winery for final blending and finishing. Bottling was in November 2021.
Contains sulphites. Produced using egg products.
