Te Mata Syrah Woodthorpe 08

$20.75 750 MLS

Te Mata ‘Woodthorpe’ Syrah 2008 (18.0/20) at 13.5% alc. Medium deep ruby red with purple hues, this was soft with gentle raspberry and red plum aromas, and attractively primary with nuances of spices. On palate, quite balanced and very much in balance in a medium-weighted style, soft supple tannins and lovely sweetness of red berry and peppery fruit. Reasonably forward drinking, but 4-6 years cellaring possible. RC Nov 09
