Paritua Syrah 2021

Cameron Douglas MS writes "Bright, youthful, fresh and engaging bouquet of Syrah with an immediate flourish of fresh red berries, lees spices, a touch of white pepper and red currant. Following this are scents of red flowers and some barrel spice qualities. Very youthful and quite taut on the palate with acidity fresh new berry flavours dominating. Firm tannins and judicious use of oak appeal. Well made and ready to imbibe from 2024 through 2029."

Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Wine Reviews writes "Deep purple with a ruby-black hue, lighter on the rim. The nose is lush and broody with blackberry, plum, chorizo, tar, violet, and dark spice aromas. Full-bodied, aromas of blackberry and dark plum entwined with violet, black pepper, liquorice, chorizo, tar and herb. The fruit is dense with rich, complex, deep flavours, unfolding savoury and floral layers. Dusty, ripe tannins provide a structured framework, flowing with lively acidity to a juicy, long finish. This black-fruited Syrah shows structure and concentration with a wide range of flavours and fine, smooth tannins."
