    • Description

      The 2020 Bilancia Trelinnoe Vineyard Syrah is a standout from Hawke’s Bay’s exceptional 2020 vintage. Hand-picked and aged almost three years in oak, this wine showcases ripe red fruit, paprika, and exotic spices with minimal oak influence, allowing the true character of the fruit and terroir to shine. It displays a brooding, powerful nature in its youth, with distinct tannins and a rich mouthfeel that will only improve with age. Notes of brambleberries, crushed black pepper, and rose petal blend seamlessly with deeper flavors of plum, tobacco, and earthy mocha.

      Highly praised by critics, this Syrah earned 97 points from both James Suckling and Bob Campbell. Suckling highlighted its "fabulous aromas" and "refined" character, while Campbell noted its dense concentration and potential to evolve into a more complex wine over time. Decanter also rated it 94 points, calling it "rounded and juicy with dark olive and plum." Whether enjoyed now or cellared for future enjoyment, the Trelinnoe Syrah is a serious, structured wine that promises years of pleasure.
