Tasting Note

In the true expression of cool-climate Syrah, this wine exudes freshly cracked black pepper, crushed violets, red and black forest fruits and savoury smoky nuances. It has crunchy acidity which carries the fine-grained tannins and background of spicy, savoury oak. This wine is about fragrance and texture, assisted by the co-fermentation with the Grüner Veltliner skins as well as whole-cluster fermentation. It boasts layers of complexity in flavour and tannins which allows an intriguing long-term ageing potential.

Product Notes

Blank Canvas Element Vineyard's Gimblett Gravels Syrah is a stunning expression of this iconic varietal grown in the renowned Gimblett Gravels wine region of Hawke's Bay, New Zealand. This exceptional wine reflects the unique terroir of the vineyard, showcasing lush aromas of dark berries, black cherries, and violet, along with hints of pepper and spice. The palate is rich and full-bodied, layered with complex flavours of black fruits, dark chocolate, and coffee. The tannins are finely textured and well-structured, delivering a long, lingering finish. This is a wine that speaks to the skill and passion of the winemaker, offering a truly memorable experience for any wine-lover.
