Co-fermented with around 4% Viognier. Wonderfully evocative nose – meat, spice, milk chocolate, mint. Reams of multi dimensional flavour – broad, long and round. A fabulous, faithful and hugely satisfactory Syrah. (RH)

The 2009 Gimblett Gravels Homage Syrah offers ripe, pure blackberry and blueberry aromas with underlying notes of peppercorns, baking spices, earth, tree bark and mulberries. Medium bodied and taut in the mouth, the muscular blackberry and earth flavors are well supported by a firm level of fine grained tannins and crisp acidity. The finish is long and savory. Drink it 2012 through 2018+. Importer: Via Pacifica Selections US Inc, Sebastopol, CA
Another ridiculously heavy bottle from the land of greens. Now this is serious on the nose – I'm tempted to make comparisons with Hermitage here! Great intensity and lovely silky texture but serious depth. Bravo! This is very clever, because it could be enjoyed already and yet it clearly has one heck of a long way to go. Meaty, dense and manly – a great lesson in the Syrahness of Syrah. Lipsmackingly good. Luscious texture. (JR)
