Linden Estate Epitome 2018, Hawkes Bay

This Syrah led blend with Merlot and the Cabernets showcases aromas and flavours of dark spices and wood smoke, dark plums and peppery blackberry, tobacco and violets. The palate follows through with dusty tannins, earthy flavours of gravels and dry clay, fruit core of plums and dark berries and a peppery vanilla toasty wood layer. Lengthy finish - drinking well now and through 2026.
