Elephant Hill Syrah 2020

Elephant Hill Syrah originates from the Hawke's Bay region of New Zealand, benefiting from a maritime climate that contributes to its balanced profile. The grapes are grown on the estate's vineyards, which are characterized by diverse soil types, enhancing the wine's complexity. Fermentation occurs in stainless steel tanks to preserve the varietal's natural fruit character, followed by aging in French oak barrels, a portion of which is new, to introduce subtle spice and structure. This Syrah is crafted to exhibit a harmonious blend of ripe dark fruit flavors, supported by a refined acidity and smooth tannins, suitable for immediate enjoyment or short-term cellaring.
