2022 Kelly Washington Syrah, Waiheke Island

Syrah/Shiraz

This Kelly Washington Syrah comes from a small plot of naturally low cropping vines planted on gentle SW facing slopes.  Maritime breezes and mineral rich clay soils help to produce wines with beautiful aromatics and great concentration. The fruit is hand picked, with 15% whole bunch fermentation before ageing in French oak barriques for 11 months.  This is a lovely savoury style Syrah with a floral edge. The palate shows restraint and elegance with a lovely balance of fruit and tannins on the finish.
