Mission Jewelstone Hawke’s Bay Syrah (2015)

The distinguished 2015 vintage (5*) was estate-grown in the Gimblett Gravels and matured in French oak casks (new and seasoned). Dark and fragrant, it is notably concentrated, with dense, ripe blackcurrant, plum, spice and black-pepper flavours, seasoned with toasty oak. Showing lovely fruit sweetness, it’s already delicious, but full of potential; open 2020+.
