Passage Rock Reserve Syrah 2020, Waiheke Island, Auckland
Very enticing ripe and sweet fruited bouquet with aromas of fresh raspberry and blackberry pie, pure black currant and barrel spice of clove and vanilla, freh pepper grind notes and sweet violet scents. Salivating, juicy, fleshy textured , new wood and mouthfilling flavours of the variety. Firm tannins and a back bone of acidity lay down a solid foundation with a core of red fruit flavours. Youthful and drinkable today, but probably best enjoyed form late 2023 through 2029+.
