2015 TRINITY HILL GIMBLETT GRAVELS SYRAH HAWKES BAY, NEW ZEALAND "Black pepper and paprika notes leap out of the glass, featuring rich, ripe, black licorice-scented huckleberry and blackberry flavors. Generous and increasingly detailed on the finish, with hints of Earl Grey tea and toasted cumin coming in on a velvety frame. Drink now through 2028." 93 Points "This has a sense of class to it and a raw, fresh power that really impresses. The wine is concentrated and poised. All manner of red to blue to purple and darker shades of fruit roll through that palate. There's a density to the very fine tannins that reflects the season and the quality of work in vineyard and winery. Best from 2020 and beyond. Screw cap." 93 Points
