Description
In a nutshell:
Hawke's Bay sunshine meets Rhône-style Syrah - ripe, juicy, and utterly enticing.
The lowdown:
This red is all about ripe, juicy fruit. Think raspberries and blackberries, but with a savoury side of pepper and subtle spice. It's crafted entirely from Syrah grapes, sourced from the sunny Hawkes Bay region in New Zealand. The winemakers employed hands-on techniques, including some whole-bunch fermentation, to add complexity. Expect a velvety texture, balanced by bright acidity, and lingering spice notes on the finish. It's a crowd-pleasing expression of Hawkes Bay Syrah - generous, approachable, and undeniably delicious.
The Producer:
Esk Valley Estate, nestled within Hawke's Bay, boasts a fascinating history intertwined with the acclaimed winemaker Sir George Fistonich who acquired the estate in the mid-1980s. On doing so he meticulously revived it, transforming it into a boutique producer of premium reds and elegant whites. Esk Valley's flagship, "The Terraces," exemplifies their dedication to quality. Today, with vineyards in both Hawke's Bay and Marlborough, Esk Valley offers a well-respected range of wines, spanning from approachable styles to top-shelf selections. Wine enthusiasts seeking quality New Zealand wines will find Esk Valley a dependable and rewarding choice.
When to drink:
A generous red with peppery spice - perfect for grilled lamb chops, roasted root vegetables, or a hearty venison stew.
