August 2006 - New regional reserve - Glazebrook Syrah 2005
Glazebrook Syrah 2005 - a new and permanent addition to our regional reserve range
Hawke's Bay is the natural home of Syrah in New Zealand. It is planted on the warmest deep gravel vineyard sites. The wines are elegant and supple with typical flavours of dark berry, liquorice and white pepper. This wine was produced from 6 year old vines grown on the deep free-draining red metals of the Bridge Pa Triangle sub-region of Hawke's Bay.
