Cable Bay (Waiheke Island) 2019 Syrah
This is an exceptional syrah and one that is worth every dollar. A silky rich decadent mouthful of rich dark fruits and a beautiful nose that drops jammy fruits and violets into mix... Definitely one to savor with a tasty slow cooked dinner like boeuf bourguignon or even a mean spaghetti bolognese
