Wonderful dark colour. Rich, ripe berry fruit on the nose with white pepper. More pepper in the palate but also vibrant upfront fruit and silky tannins. Just needs to develop a bit more. More

Syrah/Shiraz
Generally speaking the Syrahs in this tasting were a disappointing bunch. This wine, however, was an exception and came out top in this category. Still very young, it has a purple colour with aromas leather, pepper and spice. Yet in the palate it is remarkably smooth and savoury with good fruit weight and integrated tannins. More

'Saleyards' Syrah 2008

Martinborough
Syrah/Shiraz
The 2008 Syrah is an elegant style that displays typical vibrant red plum flavours along with distinctive sweet camphor, clove and frankincense spices. Earthy and savoury notes develop over time, yet this wine always retains its finesse and light-footedness. Fine grained tannins complimented by mouth-watering fruit acidity and tingling spices, complete an even, lingering finish. Although this wine demonstrates much grace it does match well with full-flavoured dishes such as Pork belly, Venison and Roasted mushrooms. More

Babich Gimblett Gravels Syrah 2008

Hawkes Bay
Syrah/Shiraz
A good depth of colour precedes pleasing ripe summer fruit aromas. Black plum and spice are also apparent on the nose. There is a sweet plum entry in the mouth, which develops into concentrated fruit with subtle savoury notes and a touch of leather. Tannins satisfy the palate and fruit lingers on the finish. Drinking well now, and will age gracefully. More

Lovely aromas of pepper and spice give way to excellent upfront fruit that has decent weight. Tannins are nicely integrated giving good balance although as yet the acidity is a little firm and the finish a tad short. These will improve in time - interesting. More
