Te Mata Estate Vineyards Syrah 2021 Hawke’s Bay – 6 Bottles

WINERY INFORMATION: Te Mata Estate was established back in 1896 in the revered Hawke’s Bay region of New Zealand. Gaining prominence as a stylish and innovative winery, it was forty years back that Te Mata finally became an internationally-recognized wine estate exporting wines to markets all over the world. TASTING NOTES: Bright red with a purple hue, a glass of Estate Vineyards Syrah is like opening a spice box. It overflows with cherry, blackberry, boysenberry, thyme, pepper and the irresistible scents of Black Doris plum and vanilla. There are floral lift and charm here, but also a supple palate with luxurious savoury fruit and enticing notes of red and black liquorice. The perfume and depth of this syrah are matched by its fine, textural expression, balance and soft, even tannins. Food match with a wonderful accompaniment to all red meats, savoury and lightly spiced dishes of Mediterranean cuisine, as well as soft cheeses.
