CHURCH ROAD GRAND RESERVE
SYRAH 2019

 

PROVENANCE

A blend of fruit from three of the very best parcels across Hawke’s Bay and Central Otago, including the Wai-iti, Gimblett and the Redstone Vineyards, this wine is emblematic of the distinctive, complex and aromatic Syrahs of exceptional quality that saw the region recognised as one of the top four Syrah-producing regions in the world in the years preceding its vintage.

  • WINEMAKERS Chris Scott and Craig Thomas
  • VITICULTURALISTS Graham Bartleet and Claire Pinker

AROMAS

TASTING NOTES

A core of dark plum, red and black berry fruits are overlaid with a classic Hawke’s Bay
Syrah floral perfume and exotic, warm spices. There are also darker liquorice, mineral and
earth notes that bring a serious, brooding undertone. Subtle oak brings extra complexity and texture,
imparting notes of vanilla, roasted cacao and a hint of smoke.

BODY

TASTING NOTES

On the palate the wine is medium to full-bodied with an impression of
sweet fruit and long finish driven by silky
tannins and gentle acidity.

CELLARING

TASTING NOTES

This is a fragrant, supple and full-bodied Syrah with a
powerful palate structure that will
reward cellaring.
