The Ridge vintages are produced from the blocks of the vineyard owned and managed by Mair & Simon, so named for the both outlook and the slopes from which these grapes are harvested from.
Māwhitipana Ridge Syrah | 2021 Vintage
The 2021 Māwhitipana Ridge Syrah had a run as dreamy as its origins, a single vineyard in a sunny, hidden valley with a glimpse of the sea. Handcrafted by two families that live on the land as kaitiaki (guardians), this season was long, calm and dry. A hot summer with little rain produced low yields with highly concentrated grapes. The settled harvest period allowed ideal picking conditions.
A vibrant Syrah with opulent blackcurrant and boysenberry notes on the nose, fused in harmony with the savouriness of cracked black pepper. Ripe berry fruit and spices flooding the palate, with fine tannins on the finish. A limited vintage with only 99 cases produced.
