Church Road Syrah Hawkes Bay

Syrah is fast becoming a key variety for hawke’s bay and new zealand, producing distinctive, complex and aromatic wines of exceptional quality that are achieving international acclaim. The warm stony soils in the south western corner of the heretaunga plains have provided us with richly-flavoured fruit, yielding a superb syrah which displays berry-fruit, spice and liquorice notes accompanied by a full and supple palate. Well-matched to a range of meat and game, or robust vegetarian dishes particularly displaying more earthy or savoury elements such as mushrooms, eggplant, cavelo nero, pulses and cheese. Drink now, or cellar for at least 5 years from vintage date to develop further earthy, savoury
complexity.
