Colere Dendron Syrah 2021

Marlborough, New Zealand

5 stars / 93pts

Aromas of smoky bacon fat, leather and dark cherry compote, lifted by raspberry, chocolate and dried rosemary. On the palate, stemmy tomato leaf notes slice through savoury layers, carried by a lean yet robust structure. Rhône-like in style, crunchy and sinewy, amazingly balanced and built for its modest 11.5% alcohol. A flyweight boxer with a solid punch. Enjoy now or cellar to 2035.
