2010 Coopers Creek Chalk Ridge Hawkes Syrah
2010 Coopers Creek Chalk Ridge Hawkes Syrah
|
|
Normally $26. The 2008 won the Trophy at the Air NZ Wine Awards for 'Best Syrah' and also scored a 95/100 from Bob Campbell, as did the 2009- the 2010 is just released and looking superb also. "Generous and impressively dense wine with cassis, black doris plum and blackberry flavours. The wine has an impressive silky texture with beautifully integrated fine tannins.
This wine is from their Chalk Ridge block, just to the south of Havelock North. It is a steep, north facing amphitheatre that is strewn with fossilised limestone. They only use the ripest fruit from the top of the hill to craft this SV Syrah. A steal
