Bright, vibrant dark red fruits on the nose with sweet cardamom and cinnamon spice. Warm and rich on the palate with boysenberry, plum and dark roasted spices. Fresh and lively palate that finishes long and fine with just a hint of toasty oak.

Wildsong Syrah comes from their Bridge Pā vineyard, in the renowned region of the ‘Bridge Pā Triangle’. Consistently the warmest site, this land was formed around 40,000 years ago as the Ngaruroro River flooded and flowed through the region leaving greywacke stone in its wake. These free draining soils and warm climate allow for a beautiful depth and intensity in the resulting wines.

Machine picked and cold soaked for 3-4 days before fermenting dry with indigenous yeast. Extended maceration on skins before being pressed off into barrel. Indigenous malo-lactic fermentation before 18 months maturing in a mixture of tank and seasoned French oak, before being bottled un-fined.

Wildsong wines are uncomplicated and grounded with a gentle tale or two to tell of the soil they were grown in and the people who made them. Grown with respect, made with heart and packed with attitude. There’s a little Wildsong in each of us.
