    Product description

    This 100% Syrah is crafted from grapes grown on high-altitude hillside slopes, contributing to its fruit-forward style. Vines average 15 years in age, yielding 30-40 hL/Ha. All grapes are hand-harvested. The wine undergoes small-batch fermentation and is pressed directly into barrels. It is aged for 12 months in French oak, with 20% of the barrels being new. A ripe, fruit-forward red with spicy notes and subtle oak. Aromas of incense and exotic spices. On the palate, barbecue smoke, black pepper, smooth tannins, and bright acidity. Juicy blackcurrant and redcurrant flavours with a hint of minerality.

    A beguiling nose of incense and exotic spices. Barbecue smoke and black pepper on the palate, with smooth tannins and supporting acidity. Freddy Bulmer: Lovely clarity and purity of fruit on the nose. The palate is juicy and vibrant, driven by blackcurrant and redcurrant flavours with bright, fresh acidity and a hint of minerality. An elegant wine. Roger Jones: There is quite an exotic, Turkish feel to this, with dark fruit, figs and sultanas. It’s a complex, layered wine with amazing lingering flavours.

    About the producer: Stonyridge Vineyard

    Stonyridge Vineyard is the ongoing dream of owner Stephen White. In 1981 Stephen returned to New Zealand after sailing a Whitbread Round the World Yacht Race, skippering yachts in the Mediterranean and Caribbean, and working at wineries in France, California and Italy. It was during this 3-year adventure that Stephen came to love the culture and lifestyle of the Mediterranean and the great red wines of France, Tuscany and California. After extensive climatic research, Stephen identified what is now Stonyridge on Waiheke Island in New Zealand as the ideal north-facing site to ripen and produce world-class Bordeaux-style wines.
