Foods:
The meatier the better!
Oak:
The wine spent 12 months in French oak (about 25% new) before assemblage.
Colour:
A beautiful deep purple/red, with a dense, dark core and bright, flashing purple rim.
Nose:
The essence of Hawkes Bay Syrah: masses of black fruits, a touch of pepper, some meatiness and lovely, savoury oak.
Palate:
A beautifully structured wine. Medium to full bodied with silken tannins and great length. The fruit in the mid palate lasts and lasts.
Background:
The soft tannins, ripe fruit flavours, black pepper and spice make this wine a great accompaniment to many meat dishes such as lamb, venison, beef and game. The bolder and more complex style means that it will stand up to richer flavours and accompaniments.
