Once known as the "Block 14" Syrah, the Gimblett Gravels Syrah is now a wine made using multiple parcels from the vineyard.
The blending of these different parcels combine to create a wine that is truly distinct and appealing.
The vines originate from a Heritage clone of Syrah brought to New Zealand approximately 150 years ago. It produces a wine with an aromatic lift of floral and pepper aromatics and a lushness and denseness on the palate combined with fresh and fine natural acidity.
100% destemmed. Fermented in open-top stainless steel tanks. French oak barriques. Maturation for 16 months.
Deepest red with a vibrant purple hue.Beautiful aromatics of violet, dark rose, freshly cracked pepper and boysenberry. Wonderful fruit purity on the palate balanced with precise acidity and fine, dusty tannins for a long, elegant finish.
Cellar 7-12 years from vintage.
