Bilancia Syrah 2021 hails from two esteemed vineyards in Roys Hill, Hawke`s Bay. La Collina and Trelinnoe. The grapes were carefully harvested, then fermented in open-top vessels before being pressed to dryness. The wine was matured in a combination of older French oak barriques and stainless steel tanks. This blend features a prominent expression of dark fruits, intermingled with hints of spice characteristic of Hawke`s Bay. Bilancia was founded by winemaker Warren Gibson and applies meticulous vineyard practices to produce terroir-driven wines both for immediate consumption or further ageing.

The 2021 Syrah is from the neighboring trellised Trelinnoe Vineyard and La Collina Vineyard. In majority is the Trelinnoe, which is in the vicinity of 85%. The Syrah rarely sees new oak. On the nose, this is totally vibrant, fresh and lithe! There`s blackberry and raspberry pip, blood plum and pink peppercorns. Delicious! The tannins are fine and chalky through the finish—not at all intrusive or firm. There`s graphite and lavender. Pretty. 14% alcohol, sealed under screw cap. - Erin Larkin

The 2021 Syrah is a delicately handled, elegant and fruit-filled expression of this variety. It is youthful and bright with pure fruit. Handled more like a Pinot Noir with no new oak, this allows its delightful fragrance to blossom. It has many flavors, from blackcurrant pastilles, strawberries, violets and ripe pepper to exotic spices. It is a lighter-bodied example with a lightness of touch that eases its way across the palate. The 2021 is a fine, drawn-out wine with gentle, gravelly tannins.
