"An attractive bouquet with core aromas of black currant and red berries, there’s a natural spice quality and layers of barrel and toasty wood, there’s also scents of violet and clay soils. A naturally dry wine on the palate with flavours of red currant and spice,  black currant and lees spices with a nut-like oak quality. Firm tannins and a backbone of acidity ensure this wine will age and develop well. Best drinking from 2023 through 2028" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Apr 2023

Bright red with purple hue. Aromas of fresh cherry, and dark plum. Smooth on the palate with some lovely berry notes up front and a nice subtle spice to finish.

The 2021 Herringbone Syrah was made from 100% hand harvested Syrah grapes from our vineyard. The fruit was in perfect condition after a long hot summer in the Hawkes Bay. After fermentation the wine was matured for 12 months in premium French oak barrels and is now ready for release.

This is the perfect wine to share now that the cooler months are upon us. It is smooth on the palate with some lovely berry notes up front and a nice subtle spice to finish. This wine will continue to improve in the bottle and will cellar well for 7 years but is ready to drink now if you can’t wait!

Food Pairing: Pair with charcuterie boards, slow cooked brisket or even your favourite pizza.
