The Flying WinemakerSyrah 2019
Dry, Medium Bodied style of Syrah
About this product
Dry, Medium Bodied style of SyrahThis wine is curated from vine parcels located within close proximity to the the famous Gimblett Gravels creating a wine that is varietally expressive and able to sing the right notes of a Hawkes Bay Syrah. We look to express the white pepper spice, blackberries, red and black currants, to show off dark fruity flavours that are plush on the palate with silky tannins and a little spice.

Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.

Creamy, silken-textured syrah with baked-earth, plum, prune, pepper-spice and vanilla flavours. A hint of sweetness helps both texture and taste with fine tannins giving a dry-ish finish. A crowd-pleaser.

Eddie McDougall makes wines from a wide range of regions: here he turns his hand to Hawke’s Bay shiraz/syrah.
This is smoky and meaty and all those good things. Overtly meaty, you would call this. It’s also pretty with floral and sweet spice notes, which match well to cherry-plum fruit flavours. Enjoyable red wine, no doubting it, of the meaty/savoury/floral persuasion.
