Product details
The grapes for this wine were grown in two contrasting Hawkes Bay sites. The free draining stony gravels of Gimblett Road provide the wine with dark fruit notes and a tannic frame while the limestone soils of the Heipipi Vineyard in Bay View adds perfume and complexity.
The individual vineyard parcels were transferred to open topped concrete fermenters for fermentation with wild vineyard yeasts and 15% whole bunch. After a period of post fermentation maceration the grapes were gently pressed and transferred to French oak barrels for 17 months ageing.
The wine is medium to deep red, with aromas that showcase the red fruit elements of Hawkes Bay Syrah, including raspberries with undertones of wood spice and pepper. In the mouth the wine is soft and generous with flavours like the nose of red berries and jam, with an underlying acidity providing elegance and length. Delicious as a young wine it will also reward cellaring.
