Mystery Gimblett Gravels Hawke's Bay Syrah 2020 (01)
Description
- Savoury oak
- Black cherry
- Aromatic florals
- Elegant & structured
Bright aromatic floral notes with ripe dark red and purple fruits. The palate is structured and elegant with ripe purple berries and black cherry fruits finishing with subtle savoury oak notes.
The outstanding fruit was sourced from a single vineyard within the Gimblett Gravels winegrowing district of Hawke’s Bay. The vigour moderating, free draining gravel provides a superb base for this low cropping Syrah. The vineyard site has ideal ripening conditions for achieving the intense aromatics and delicate structure that Syrah can give.
The fruit was held cold for four days prior to ferment to help extract maximum flavour and to enhance colour stability. The fermenting was hand plunged during primary alcoholic fermentation. When dry the young wine was pressed and then racked off gross lees to a stainless-steel tank and a small amount of French oak. It was gently extracted from oak and tank, blended, aged, and carefully prepared for bottle.
Food Pairing: Well matched with wild duck or venison.

Very good for NZ syrah. Purple rim. Floral, savoury , mineral, savoury nose and consistent on the palate with balancing acidity. Would benefit from more time but very drinkable now. A bargain.
