Babich Winemaker's Reserve Syrah 2019, Hawkes Bay

Complex and engaging bouquet, youthful, varietal, smoky, fruity, woody and ripe. Scents of baked plums and raspberry, black berries and roasted meats. There’s a natural baking spice and earthy qualities some freshly ground pepper and anise shavings, wram stones and toasted French oak qualities. Youthful bite as the wine touches the palate with firm tannins and a back bone of acidity that require integration time in your cellar. The core of fruit flavours reflect the nose and coat the palate nicely. Well made, but needing cellar time. Best drinking from 2023 through 2030+.
