Big Bunch Hawkes Bay Syrah 2014

Big Bunch Hawkes Bay Syrah 2014"It's vibrant and fragrant on the nose displaying pristine fruit aromas of dark plum and blueberry with hints of floral and white pepper notes. The palate is nicely rounded and silky, backed by polished tannins. Youthful and friendly with attractive fruit flavours. At its best: now to 2019."

Deep crimson in colour with bright berry fruit, violet and savoury pepper aromas. The palate tastes of plums, fruit spice and wild herbs, complimented by silky smooth tannins. This is a supple wine with real drinkability.

Hawkes Bay enjoyed one of the earliest and most settled seasons of recent times in 2014. The combination of Hawkes Bay soils and climate produce a pure expression of Syrah.

Grapes where gently destemmed leaving a percentage of whole berries in the ferment.  We used open top fermenters with regular plunging, then it was gently pressed and post malo aged with oak.
