Producentens tekst (engelsk): Perfumed aromas of ripe black fruits, savoury spice, liquorice, and Provençal herbs come together on a concentrated, silky, and succulent palate with a lingering, spicy finish. An outstanding Gimblett Gravels Syrah that will develop with age. Pair with red meat dishes or game. Winemaking: The Gimblett Gravels Winegrowing region is a small area in Hawke’s Bay, New Zealand, defined by its unique stony soil type. The warm and dry 2024 growing season has produced an aromatic, vibrant and spicy expression of Gimblett Gravels Syrah. Grapes were harvested from 3 individual vineyards located on the Gimblett Gravels, de-stemmed and fermented separately. All parcels were pumped over once daily to aid optimum colour and tannin extraction, with a range of maceration periods utilised to increase textural complexity. Following fermentation, parcels earmarked for the Gimblett Gravels Syrah blend were matured in 5,400-litre French oak ovals for 18-20 months. This barrel ageing regime allows the individual characteristics of our Syrah vineyards to shine through while the wines mature slowly, preserving each parcel’s inherent beauty, purity, and freshness. The final wine was blended in November 2025 and bottled in February 2026 with minimal fining and filtration.
