Church Road McDonald Series Syrah Clover Hill Tasmanian Cuvée Rosé NV Powerful gooseberryThe palate is fragrant, darkfruited, and supple, opening with ripe plum, blackberry, and boysenberry. The fruit feels generous but not heavy, carried by a line of fresh, balanced acidity that keeps the wine lifted. A thread of violet, black pepper, and gentle liquorice brings aromatic lift, while the midpalate shows a soft, velvety texture that feels characteristic of Hawkes Bay Syrah. Subtle oak influence adds warm spice and a faint cocoa edge,
