Rochford Estate Syrah 2023
RRP: $33.00
Tasting Notes:
A super spicy syrah showing gentle reduction, damson plum, bunchy lift and some black pepper. The palate has nice density with plum fruits, smallgoods and boysenberry. The tannin has a nice shape and works well in the cooler season presented in 2023.
Winemaking Notes:
