SOHO Family Vineyards Reserve JC 2021, Waiheke Island

Winemaker James Rowan really does understand the origin and profile of where these grapes are grown, he also understand longevity, style and the power fruit and judicious winemaking can bring to a wine. Aromas of blackberry fruits, dark skinned preserved cherry, blackcurrant compote, chocolate and smoky barrel spices. There’s a clay and hard stone earthy quality and plenty of barrel smoke and spice layers. On the palate a taut, youthful palate-squeeze with ripe with yet to be tamed and integrated tannins - by cellaring , a backbone of acidity and powerhouse of flavours from fruit to wood, earth and style. A delicious wine with best drinking from 2030 through 2040+.
