Elephant Hill Stone Syrah 2018, Hawkes Bay
Fabulous bouquet with aromas of dark red currants and raspberry, reminders of northern Rhone reds with scents of spiced meats and wild forest flora. Aromas of new wood with dark spices of clove and baked vanilla and a dry stone mineral layer setting the foundation for a core of fruit. Youthful on the palate with firm tannins and a back bone of acidity then a core of fruit with raspberry an dark berries reflecting the bouquet along with an abundance of toasty wood and forest floor. Complex and engaging youthful and long. An excellent example with best drinking from 2021 through2028+.
