Overview

Syrah

Its Origins

Squawking Magpie Owner and Director Gavin Yortt planted the main Woodland’s vineyard in 1995, with further holdings in 2002 extending the focus on Hawkes Bay classic grapes such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah. They are members of Sustainable Winegrowing New Zealand and maintain a strong focus on cellaring wines and a quality-driven (rather than brand-driven) market strategy, which begins with rigorous vineyard management. Though not shouting from every shelf, on quality-for-value Squawking Magpie wines are often among the best Hawkes Bay has to offer.

What The Critics Say

93/100 Cameron Douglas MS

"Very bright with a purple ruby core and pink rim. Aromas of raspberry and cherry, plum, peppercorn, earth and smoke and sour cherry compote invade the senses. Youthful and ripe, enticing and fresh with a judicious use of oak. Dry, excellent wight and style on the palate, flavours of plum and blackcurrant, ripe and sour cherry then spices from barrel and variety with a peppercorn note. COmplex, smoky, a core of fruit and spice, sense of place and lotrs of style." Drink 2027 - 2034+

TOP OF THE TASTING and Gold Medal, Dish Magazine (2021 vintage)

"With its intense aromatics, generously juicy mid-palate, savoury tones and supple tannins, this stunning syrah sailed straight into the recalls and roared through the final tasting in rockstar fashion. Bold pepper, cherry, and plummy characters merge with hints of lantana and violets to create an incredibly savoury, stylish and elegantly poised syrah that seriously overdelivers in the drink-for-your-dollar stakes. Gorgeous."
