Squawking Magpie ‘The Stoned Crow’ Gimblett Gravels Syrah 2009 $40
Inky-dark and packed with concentrated plum, cocoa, sexy spices and lifted dried-herb aromatics. In the mouth it is luscious, juicy and elegantly flavoursome. The tannins are solid, present yet beautifully integrated and contribute to stunning length of flavour. This is a superb wine which is built for the long haul. There’s precious little available so visitwww.squawkingmagpie.co.nz for info on how to buy.
