Linden Estate Syrah Hawkes Bay 2021

4 Stars - "On the nose dark cherries, plums, cacao, dried herbs and a note of white pepper. The medium-to-full bodied palate celebrates those dark cherries, ripe plums served with a good amount of fruit acidity. All wrapped in mild tannins and subtle smoky oak, resulting in a grainy textured wine with a firm finish."Gavin Hubble Grape To Glass

91 Points "A deep red hues core with a ruby rim leads to a bouquet of dark cherry and black currant, there’s a mix of earth and spice, mushroom and vanilla, clove and violet. On the palate there’s some tautness and firmness from tannins and acidity then a core of fruit reflecting the bouquet offers contrast and mid-palate richness. A dry wine with a mix of textures and varietal flavours, a touch of pepper, dried herb and aged- meat ideas, length and readiness. Best drinking from day of purchase through 2027+" Cameron Douglas MS
