Syrah 2015

NZ Organic Wine Awards 'Champion Syrah'

In 2017 we were tasting this wine with a visiting international sommelier,  who suggested that it had immense aging potential. We ended up setting aside 400 bottles in our library cellar so we could have something special to offer. Recently we entered it into the 2020 Organic Wine Awards. We were delighted when it won 'Champion Syrah'. 

It is powerful and weighty with deep colour. Fragrant, with rich plum, spice and earthiness. It is very well structured and supple, likely to keep developing even more complexity over the next 2 years.  2016

Tasting notes

The bouquet shows dark plum, cherry pie, cocoa, cedar and floral characters with nuances of black olive and spice. The palate delivers excellent fruit concentration and richness, supported by silky texture and polished tannins.
