Tasting Notes

A fluid, supple style that is richly aromatic. It is full-bodied but retains a sense of elegance – Hawke's Bay remains a relatively cool place to grow Syrah. The aromas are spicy, with green peppercorns, agave, and blackberries. There's a gush of mouthwatering acidity and the tannins coat the mouth with the texture of melted chocolate on the supple, medium-long, spicy finish. Very satisfying already but has enough intensity and the structural components to continue to evolve over the medium term.
