Left to hang until the end of November, Hester Creek’s Syrah is among the vintage’s more seemingly ripe examples, clocking in at over 14.5% alcohol. Co-fermented with 1% Viognier, it drips with cassis, dark cherry and black plum. Ageing in a combination of American and French oak barriques confers a toasty, vanilla accent. Plump, plush and concentrated, this recalls Aussie Shiraz more than Northern Rhône though floral and olive traces that evoke the latter. Overall, it is balanced in its girth with an easy-to-please demeanour.
