Hawke’s Bay Syrah

Corbans’ winemakers craft this range of complex varietal wines from premium Hawke’s Bay fruit to be ideal companions for food.

Luscious cherry, floral and spice aromas are layered with
savoury oak characters to create a complex, enticing wine.e.

Vintage:	2007
Colour:	Vibrant ruby red
Aromas:	Lifted aromas of black cherries with floral hints are complemented by distinctive pepper characters

Palate:

Fleshy with dark fruit flavours and savoury tannins finishing with black pepper spiciness

Whilst drinking well now, this wine will continue to develop in complexity. Ideal cellaring is three to five years from the vintage year.

“Corbans Private Bin Hawke’s Bay Syrah 2005 has many of the best elements of syrah from the region. It fills the nose with cherry and violets and the mouth with savoury cherry and berryfruit. Great individually and enough balance to be a recommended match for rich but delicate meat dishes - duck and orange, herbed lamb, even an oily fish. I enjoyed it with a lamb roast and it also went well with the blue cheese and cracker entrée. Versatile and tasty, syrah is the new pinot. Bring it on."
