Trinity Hill Homage Syrah 2019

The winery writes "The 2019 Homage displays the complexity, sophistication and refined power that are the hallmarks of the marque. The characteristics of Gimblett Gravels Syrah shine through in a captivating, complex bouquet. Ripe blackberries, black liquorice, Chinese five-spice and crushed minerals are complimented by an exotic perfume of red fruits and florals. Toasty/cedary oak sits discretely in the background. The wine is intense and concentrated in the mouth with fine-grained tannins providing a powerful, yet silky texture. Balanced acidity and supportive oak ensure the wine remains vibrant, focused, and supple on a palate distinguished by exceptional length of flavour and a lingering spicy finish."

Bob Campbell MW writes "A deep-tinted, fine-grained wine with cassis, black doris plum, black pepper, dark chocolate, coffee, wood-smoke and oriental spice aromas. A complex wine with a wonderful texture and lingering finish. Delicious now but shows promising cellaring potential. 77% from Gimblett Gravels with the balance from a hillside vineyard neighbouring the Gimblett Gravels. Fermented with 1% viognier."
