Black Barn Vineyards Syrah 2020, Hawkes Bay

There’s no mistaking the core scents of variety with dark plum and baked raspberry, a fine layer of anise and barrel spices add complexity while a dark violet and toasty roasted nut quality deliver depth and breadth. Youthful and bold on the palate with a taut core mouthfeel then flavours of dark berries, spicy plum and five spice claim their space on the palate. Tannins are ripe, nicely polished and abundant. Acidity offers freshness carrying flavour and emphasises the youthful power and drive of this wine. Well made, youthful and best enjoyed with food through 2022 to 2025, then on its own (or with food) through 2030+.
