A super special one off from the team at Scout.
They were fortunate enough to get access to a small parcel of organically grown Syrah from the Seresin vineyard. Beautiful dark fruit from a stellar red Marlborough vintage.

This fruit screamed whole bunch. So, naturally, they went 100%. All in.
A little bit of foot stomping to get the ferment going, then sealed up for a week or two to do its thing, before a final plunge before pressing. It then hung out in old barriques until bottling in February.

Marlborough Syrah via the Northern Rhone. Dark blueberry and violet florals shot through with black pepper. The palate finished with layers of spicy whole bunch tannin and juicy acid.

Scout have also dressed it up in a new label! Reflecting the fun loving and risk taking aspect of Scout that directs their winemaking
