Bilancia La Collina Syrah
Warm Spice × Ripe Red Berry × Finesse
98pts: Parker's Wine Advocate
Refined yet powerful, this is one of New Zealand's best Syrahs. As winemaker at Trinity Hill, Warren Gibson's credentials are stellar. This is his own beloved expression of the Syrah grape, made from their top vines on a sun-facing hillside above the Gimblett Gravels. This exceptional fruit is hand-havested in multiple passes and co-fermented with skins of Viognier from the same site (this classic combination is a tradition at Trinity Hill too) before the gentlest of treatments in the winery, including 21 months "resting" in light-impact new French oak. With elegance and harmony to burn from a great vintage for Syrah, this will keep aging or drink now.
