Te Mata, Bullnose other_regions round and forward medium plus

round and forward medium plus weight flavors that are quite generous

Like the Chenevery this is not super vibrant but the density of the mid-palate and overall persistence is most impressive

full-bodied and uncommonly sexy and textured in the vintage

This is also extremely ripe with notes of cassis

Te Mata, Bullnose other_regions round and forward medium plusTe Mata's 2015 Bullnose Syrah is a wonderfully fragrant, medium bodied wine. Always one of the region's most aromatic Syrahs, it boasts hints of violets, cracked pepper and licorice strewn over a base of berry fruit. The tannins are silky and the extraction modest, so this wine is approachable young but still firm and concentrated enough to warrant cellaring for 5 7 years from the vintage.
