From Babich's estate-owned and certified sustainable vineyards in the iconic Gimblett Gravels and Bridge Pa Triangle sub-regions, this Hawke's Bay Syrah offers delicate raspberry and floral flavours in a light, fresh and peppery style.
Tasting Notes
Sweetly perfumed with notes of raspberry and vanilla overlaying cedar and just a suggestion of camphor wood.
Focused dark fruits on entry expand into fleshy plum, more raspberry and touches of oregano and other dried herbs. There is spice and well integrated oak on the finish. A juicy, medium weighted wine with fresh fruits and fine tannins.
Food Pairing
This Hawke's Bay Syrah makes an ideal partner to strongly flavoured foods such as balsamic marinated steak or an antipasto platter of salami, artichokes, olives and sundried tomatoes.
