96 points; A fine, succulent Syrah indeed. Crushed black pepper, blue violets, preserved blueberries, mulberries, black plums, dark chocolate (the type that goes from 85% and above), infused cloves, Chinese black tea leaves, black liquorice. There is a level of detail, focus and purity of fruit across those wines. Again, with this Blewitt Spring Syrah the palate shows a generous side; it’s well balanced by a vibrant acidity that makes me salivate for another glass. A fine, succulent Syrah indeed. The naysayers might think that I’ve been captured by the story behind those labels, but as a wine lover I’m just saying what I see without my thick prescription glasses. Enjoy with slow roasted Kangaroo tail and native yam daisy. Winepilot.
An aromatic nose of blueberries, dark cherry fruits, floral and spice notes. Medium to full bodied, blueberry, plum and dark cherry fruits burst onto the palate. Vibrant fruit combines with notes of red flowers, cacao and layers of cooking spice. The hallmark sandy/biscuity tannins of Blewitt Spring linger on the palate.
