Te Awanga Estate Hawkes Bay Syrah 2020

94 POINTS & 5 STARS: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

"It's gorgeously expressed on the nose showing dark berry, clove, cedar, game and rich floral aromas. The palate delivers terrific weight and refined texture, wonderfully framed by polished tannins. Offering splendid fruit purity with complexity, making it highly enjoyable."
 - Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

Bright red fruits with an earthy edge and blueberry undertones. A spicy toast and just a touch of the classic white pepper. Bright and intense on the palate with red and black summer fruits and dry roast dark spices. Fine tannins and a fresh acidity give the palate length, and a nice medium body. The wine finishes strong, with subtle white pepper and ripe black plums. 

ABV: 13%
