Seductive black fruit, cracked pepper and spice. An elegant, rather than powerful Syrah, more in common with the Northern Rhône than the New World.

“Another antique from Elephant Hill! Healthy mid garnet. Recognisably Syrah on the nose! Lots of fruit and supple tannins. Sappy and savoury but with no shortage of fruit on the mid palate. A please-all wine that's GV (good value).”
Elephant Hill is a leading light of the Hawke’s Bay, forging a reputation for distinctive wines of timeless style and quality. Devotees of the Old World, this estate is one to watch.
New Zealand’s wines have soared in popularity in recent years, with jet-set Kiwi Sauvignon Blanc as the most popular. While New Zealand’s signature Sauvignon style continues to impress, there is far more here to tempt wine lovers.
