“It’s fun to drink showing off the variety’s potential for early-drinking charm.” – Wine Advocate
A lush and peppery Syrah from the gravelly soils of Hawke’s Bay. Wines like this are why Gimblett Gravels has such a stellar reputation.
Ripe red and black fruit violet rose black pepper blueberry Provençal herbs and dark chocolate notes combine with baking spices and dusty tannins from the 16 months in French oak barriques. This is one of our go-to wines for any lamb-based dish (especially if it has lots of thyme rosemary and garlic) chocolatey Mexican mole or roasted aubergine.
Terry Peabody’s wife and daughter convinced him to establish a family wine business in the 1990s. After travelling the world in search of the perfect spot he settled on Gimblett Gravels in Hawke’s Bay New Zealand. This spot was chosen because of his love of big reds particularly Syrah and Bordeaux.
