2009 Elephant Hill Syrah

3 x Trophy Winner!
Blue Gold Medal + Top 100
Sydney International Wine Competition 2011

Gold Medal, New Zealand Royal Easter Show 2010

The 2009 growing season was well suited to Syrah. A long, warm and dry Indian summer allowed the grapes to be picked at the peak of their flavour. This Syrah is a 50/50 mix of the Mass Selection and Chave clone, one of the newer clones to find its way to Hawke’s Bay from the Northern Rhone region of France. After picking, the bunches were gently de-stemmed but not crushed, then fermented in traditional open-top cuves. After pressing, the wine was put to oak barriques (40% new) and allowed to aged for 10 months before bottling.

Displaying typical Syrah character where aromas of boysenberry, dark chocolate and anise blend with hints of smoked meat. Ripe, juicy black fruits fill the rich palate. An abundance of fruit sweetness and spice ensures a wine of great balance.

A 10% discount is offered on all case purchases (12 bottles), this saving will be applied once 12+ bottles have been added to the shopping cart.
