Askerne Syrah 2022, Hawke's Bay

A lovely varietal impact with aromas of baked red berry fruits and barrel spices, stone, dried herb, a gentle aged meat quality, some pepper moments, violet and lees inspired baked goods qualities. Dry, taut and very youthful still as the wine touches the palate. Tannins and acidity drive the palate textures cushioned and contrasted by the core fruit flavours of black currant and raspberry, and some baked versions of the same. Tannins and acidity set a foundation structure that requires time in cellar to integrate with the layers of fruit flavours. A lovely wine that needs time in your cellar. Best drinking from late 2024 or early 2025 through 2030+.
