Not just about the land in which the grapes are grown, but about the history of the infamous people who founded the land.

Deep intense red with purple hues. Fresh lifted wine of ripe dark berry spicy fruit with some herb notes balance with some oak. Full bodied wine showing fresh lively dark fruits of black currants, herbs and balanced with some subdued spicy integrated oak. Excellent partner to all types of red meats especially a juicy steak with red onion jam. This wine has the flavour, structure and balance to be enjoyed now or offers added satisfaction from further cellaring.

The Aotea by Seifried Syrah was blended from a small parcel of fruit from the Brightwater vineyard. The parcel was fermented separately and had an extended period in oak barriques. The wine is rich, warm and opulent with supple dark berry flavours complemented with warm cinnamon and hints of freshly ground black pepper. Layers of ripe flavours linger on the palate leaving a lasting impression.

Spicy at first with leather notes. It develops blackcurrant and toasted aromas. Full bodied, smooth tannins, a crisp acidity.

Aged in French barrels for 12 months creating a soft earthy nose with blackcurrent aromas developing nicely. Ingratiate yourself with sweet varietal fruit and a lingering dark chocolate promise.

Aromas of dark fruits and dried herbs with pepper and black olive. Also a hint of coffee. Layers of red and black fruits dominate a juicy and lively palate with good density and a fine texture. A supple wine with a warm and spicy finish.

Much has been said and written about the Gimblett Gravels area being fantastic for Syrah. Babich was a pioneer of this region and this wine comes from the famous Babich Irongate vineyard. It is an accessible middleweight Syrah that's big on berry fruit, sprinkled with spice and pepper.

Banrock Station Wines are bold, flavoursome, easy drinking wines produced from excellent fruit.

Vibrant characteristics of red plum, black pepper and spice create a striking presence.

This Australian Shiraz from the Riverland winegrowing region in South Eastern Australia. This hot, dry winegrowing region is famous for ripe, generous, classic Aussie Shiraz with delicious sweet red berry flavours. Harvested at perfect ripeness, fruit was immediately processed at the winery and fermented on skins to maximise flavour and colour. Maturation in oak.

The la collina vineyard is a steep, terraced and incline planted hillside vineyard on the North/Northwest facing slopes of Roys Hill, west of Hastings, Hawke's Bay. The hillside is protected from the cooling effects of the southerly winds and during the growing season the vine-yard is bathed in sunshine. The hillside terraces are planted to Syrah (and a few other interesting Varieties) whilst the lower slopes and Gravels flat are planted to Chardonnay and Viognier/Marsanne/Roussanne. The 2021 growing season was the third leg of a Hawke's Bay winning trifecta; dry and warm and all round, a great season. The fruit was hand harvested in perfect condition over two days in early April. The perfect condition of the fruit allowed for the inclusion of some whole bunches in the fermentation. The wine was fermented in open top fermenta-tion vessels, pressed at dryness and transferred to barriques where the wine remained for 20 months.

Bold and elegant, the Back Block Syrah has pepper, spice, plum, and succulent ripe tannins. The dark magenta colour immediately suggests it from a very good vintage and the flavours are ripe. The Back Block Syrah is one of Brookfields most popular wines - do enjoy!
