Bold and elegant, the 2022 Back Block Syrah has pepper, spice, plum, and succulent ripe tannins. The dark magenta colour immediately suggests it from a very good vintage and the flavours are ripe. The Back Block Syrah is one of Brookfields most popular wines – do enjoy!
The term back block is a generic term - many people live in the back blocks (isolated hill country), and every farm has a back block. The Back Block at Ohiti is exactly that, and it is literally at the back, surrounded by hills, on free draining shingle, facing the northeast, thus ideal for growing grapes.
The fruit was harvested on the 13th of April, and tank fermented. Cap management was by pumping over. Time on the skins was at least two weeks. It was pressed and immediately went back into tank, for malolactic fermentation. It had at least six months in oak.
