Ngatarawa
Ngatarawa 'Proprietors Reserve' Syrah 2013 Hawke's Bay
Smoky, fruity, dense and rich in both dark berry aromas and oak; a powerful dark berry fruit bouquet leads with a strong toasty oak core. On the palate - dry, fruity, toasty and distinctive; flavours if dark berry fruits and gob loads of oak with a strong stony mineral layer and dried herb moment, even a touch of meat and pepper. A big full-bodied wine with plenty of warmth, acidity and tannins (smoky and toasty). Enjoy this wine soon with an equally big and bold piece of marbled Wagyu medium rare - you will be happy.
88 Points
