Māwhitipana Estate Syrah | 2020 Vintage
The vintage of a lifetime in story and taste. Handcrafted from a single vineyard in a sunny, hidden valley with a glimpse of the sea, 2020 is considered the vintage of a generation. The growing season had record droughts followed by one of the driest autumns in decades. The 2020 Estate Syrah a standout, and the first for the two families creating a sustainable legacy on the land they share.
Rich and vibrant, with intense flavour and impressive concentration, the 2020 Māwhitipana Estate Syrah is a beguiling mix of the dark fruit aromas of cassis, plum and black cherry, mingled with coffee, vanilla and hints of violets, lifted by spicy notes. A rich, seductive palate, with a dark chocolate and mocha finish. A limited vintage with only 115 cases produced.

5 Stars, Michael Cooper
Dark purple and ruby hues at the core with a red rim, very bright and youthful appearance. Aromas and flavours of blue fruits and black currant, baking spices are laced with toasty mild peppery scents and flavours. Plums and black currant, some mocha chocolate moments and dark earthy mineral suggestions. Dry with a backbone of acidity, an abundance of fruits tannins, fleshy fruits and spice mouthfeel. Lengthy and well made. A wine best enjoyed from late 2024 through 2029+.
