Church Road McDonald Series Hawke's Bay Syrah 2020
- Spicy oak
- Dark cherry & plum
- Warm spice
- Full-bodied
"Intense and quite complex red with plum, cassis, dark cherry/berry, black pepper, chocolate/mocha and spicy oak flavours with a core of vibrant acidity. Accessible now but with cellaring potential at least in the mid term" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Dec 2022
A core of dark plum and berry fruit is overlaid with classic Hawkes Bay Syrah perfume of violets, exotic warm spice and cracked black pepper, supported by subtle oak toast. On the palate the wine is full bodied but fine textured with a gentle tannin structure a balanced acidity bring length and freshness. This wine is unfiltered and some precipitate may form with time. We recommend decanting.
Food Pairing: Well matched to a wide range of full flavoured game and red meat dishes.
