Tasting profile
Structure: medium-bodied, medium tannin, medium acidity, dry
Craggy Range's Syrah from the free-draining Gimblett Gravels of Hawke's Bay, a benchmark for cool-climate New Zealand Syrah. Dark plum and boysenberry come with black pepper, violet and a savoury edge of dried herbs and smoked meat. It is medium-bodied, with fine tannins and fresh acidity, and sits closer to the Northern Rhône than to warm-climate Shiraz. A food-friendly red that gains savoury depth with a few years in bottle.
