Fromm Organic Syrah 2018, Marlborough

Tasted over two days: Day 1 - Raw, youthful, varietal and slightly forward, lovely palate with flavours of raspberry and plum, some pepper and a touch of herb. Needs time, but has potential given the time to meld.

Day 2 - A lot quieter day two and more harmonious, less forward. Aromas and flavours have developed some really promising attributes - black-boy peach and black cherry, some tart raspberry and old preserves, the spice of the variety is now clearer. On the palate - dry, firm, youthful and showing the potential to age well. Medium tannins and highish acidity, the core is where all the action is showing that this wine just needs some time to settle down and develop. Quite a lengthy finish Best drinking from 2022 through 2028+.
