Redmetal Vineyards

Redmetal Vineyards Syrah 2015 Hawkes Bay
Immediate bold and expressive, very fruit centric, youthful. Ripe red currants, fresh raspberry, wild raspberry and red cherry – all laced with fresh pepper. On the palate – juicy, fleshy, ripe red berry fruit flavours, warming alcohol, plenty of contrasting acidity and even tempered silky tannins. Balanced, bright, fruity and lengthy. Just enough oak. Well made. Drink now and through 2024.

Redmetal Vineyards ‘Basket Press’ Syrah 2015 Hawkes Bay
Immediately expressive bouquet – concentrated, fruity, spicy and inviting. Aromas and flavours of red and blue fruits with dark raspberry and black current, black cherry and crushed rose; some stony mineral tones. A core of fruit, fine to moderate chalky tannins and back bone of acidity and lengthy finish; balanced use of oak, plenty of complexity and length. Drink now and through 2026.
