Having lived in London at the heart of the UK wine trade for many years, Sam Harrop MW moved back to New Zealand with his family a few years ago and now makes wines under his own name (for the first time), working his aunt and uncle’s vineyard, located at 400 metres’ altitude on the sub-tropical island of Waiheke.

This is impressive, pure and elegant Syrah. It has a lovely aromatic nose with classic Northern Rhône aromas, and flavours of wet granite and fresh black cherries. The palate is refined and elegant with a refreshing herbaceous twist. There is a glorious breadth on the palate but the wine is wonderfully refreshing with a real lift on the finish. We cannot recommend enough that you give this a try.

Dark, ruby-tinged red. Perfumed scents of cassis, crushed raspberry, bay leaf, tobacco leaf and curry powder. Boasts excellent intensity and thrust but still youthfully dumb and clenched in the mid-palate. But this wine boasts terrific depth to its flavors of dark berries, flowers and spices. With a firm spine of ripe tannins, this wine has the structure to support a long and graceful evolution in bottle.

Beautiful bright ruby in colour. Expressive red fruit on the nose but that is not what this wine is about. Lovely spice and much more reserved in character than most NZ Pinot. Very cool fruit on the palate. Rich and round as it should be but with the poise and composure of a great Burgundy. Seductive and savoury. One of the great New World Pinot Noirs. Buy this, drink it or hold it… sensational!
