Te Rere Motukaha Reserve Syrah 2021, Waiheke Island

Great concentration of colour with a core of purple and ruby and pinkish rim, leading to a bouquet of dark plums and baked raspberry, there’s a core of concentration driven by fruit and barrel, some tar and baked stone suggestions. Complexity and youthful power, concentration and varietal drive. There’s also a smoky iron sand quality adding further complexity. Dry on the palate with a firm mouthfeel, there’s a mix of ripe and tart red berry fruit flavours, plenty of tannins and a back bone of acidity. A wine that needs cellar time or decanting for service and will pair well with food. There’s a firm youthful grip, varietal core and moderate + length. Best drinking from 2025 through 20301+.
