Te Awa Single Estate Gimblett Gravels Syrah 2016 (Hawke’s Bay)

Magenta-rimmed, this is a lighter stepping style from winemaker Richard Painter. In the mouth, it immediately seduces with juicy sweetness. A crisp tightness gives it precision, and red fruit notes (cranberry), make most of the play flavourwise. “Seamless tannins,” noted John Belsham. It would be a great partner for chorizo and chicken dishes.
