Unison Syrah 'Rocks' 2018, Gimblett Gravels, Hawkes Bay
Calm, soft, varietal, fruity, pure and welcoming bouquet. Aromas of sweet, ripe raspberry and bing cherry, violets and dry stone minerality. Enticing, fresh and fragrant. On the palate - dry, fleshy, salivating and tasty. Flavours of berries and flowers reflect the bouquet with firm finely textured tannins and a backbone of acidity framing the wine beautifully and leading to a lengthy very satisfying finish. Drink now and through 2025.

Excellent
Remember - not all Syrah has to be big, bold and packed with chewy tannins, more elegant, floral and subtle version are equally important.
