Tasting Notes
Aroma
Opening with
classic florals, featuring notes of spice, plum, cinnamon, violets, raspberry, and cherry.
Appearance
Bullnose Syrah ’23 is a striking crimson with a vivid purple hue at its rim.
Palate
These aromas seamlessly transition to the palate, where fine, cashmere-like tannins
create a harmonious texture. The interplay of complex cherry and dark plum flavours
is warm, caressing, and instantly appealing. Bullnose Syrah ’23 is finely balanced and
satisfying throughout - simply beautiful.
Vinification
The individual lots were each destemmed and given a traditional warm-plunged
fermentation. The resulting wines underwent extended maceration on skins before
pressing and then a secondary malolactic fermentation. The separate wines were then
run to a mixture of new and seasoned French oak barriques for 13 months’ maturation.
During this time, they were regularly topped and racked, before blending and then
bottling in October 2024.
Cellaring Potential
Bullnose Syrah ’23 is closed with a Diam cork, allowing continued evolution in bottle
for 10 years from harvest.
Region Notes
First planted in 1990, the Bullnose vineyard's old red iron soils produce Te Mata Estate's finest Syrah.
