Millars Vineyard Syrah 2014 $25 4.5 stars

Take the little bendy track called Bush Lane above Mangawhai beach, and you’ll find the small but perfectly formed vineyard belonging to Ross Millar. He grows tiny amounts of darn lovely wine and this syrah is no exception. Ultra-pure peppercorn characters on the nose merge with lifted violet, dark cherry, blueberry and juicy, succulent fruit on the mid palate. It’s a delicously fresh syrah that’s bursting with personality and peppery spark. Exceptional value for money.  Love it!!
