Villa Maria Twyford Gravels Single Vineyard Syrah 2021, Hawke's Bay

Aromas of dark berries and black currant, a layer of white smoke and fresh meats then clove and vanilla spices of barrel. Varietal, youthful and new. On the palate firm dry wine with tannins and acidity touching first. Fruit and wood flavours follow offering contrast and concentration. A wine still developing with a vibrant mouthfeel and lots of texture. On the finish the peppery qualities of the variety begin to emerge, I am glad they are subtle. Plenty of promise as well with best drinking from 2025 through 2030+.
