The Syrah was the first wine by the label that stopped me dead when I tried it back in 2020, and, not surprisingly, it made my list of \u201cTop wines of the year\u201d in the same year.<\/p><p>Kate takes fruit from Bridge Pa &#8211; a traditional powerhouse region of Hawke\u2019s Bay Syrah, and Mangatahi &#8211; which is further inland and has higher elevation for the Syrah. A canny operator with a wealth of experience, she knows what will go with what, and builds the wines she makes with just the right blocks to produce something special. I said of that original wines that \u201cit somehow manages to be both full and open, and yet possessed of a tautness and tension\u201d and I can\u2019t find any better words than that to start to tell you about the new vintage either.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-1bed890 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"1bed890\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-cf63f76\" data-id=\"cf63f76\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1499c68 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"1499c68\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"735\" height=\"980\" src=\"https:\/\/winefolio.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Syrahs-24-and-19-768x1024.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-15706\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/winefolio.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Syrahs-24-and-19-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/winefolio.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Syrahs-24-and-19-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/winefolio.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Syrahs-24-and-19.jpeg 950w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 735px) 100vw, 735px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-573e632\" data-id=\"573e632\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-14b297d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"14b297d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The Syrah is precisely varietal &#8211; for a cool climate, New World expression of the grape. A lighter tone than some &#8211; it\u2019s a brilliant ruby-purple colour in the glass; but the aromas of dark plum, boysenberry, blackcurrant and cherry are ripe, plush and fleshy. There is an elegance and immediacy to the new one, but also a sense of underlying structure, that gives me the sense that it will age very well.<\/p><p>Rather sensibly, there is the 2019 vintage of the same wine is also on the table. It gives customers an insight into how the new wine might develop &#8211; and producers will sometimes show this at release tastings to offer confidence to potential buyers. It\u2019s a smart move, and one I\u2019m seeing more often nowadays.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-bbc9592 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"bbc9592\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-aa33e44\" data-id=\"aa33e44\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b1ee33c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"b1ee33c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>I find the \u201919 a little darker and voluptuous, with more savoury notes and pepper. This might be the ageing process of five years, but I like it.<\/p><p>I would regard the Syrah as the best Radburnd wine in the portfolio, but the Chardonnay does give it a close run. For example, I gave the 2019 Syrah a score of 96\/100, and the Chardonnay from the same vintage a 95\/100. Kate has brought two Chardonnays and two of the Merlot-Cabernet red blend along this evening too. The 2024 Radburnd Chardonnay I haven\u2019t reviewed before &#8211; although I did taste it when I visited Kate, and daughter Penelope, in May 2025.

I reviewed it in 2022 and said \u201cSo well-crafted and complex, with layers of interest \u2013 but overall just a delicious, more-ish glass of Chardonnay\u201d adding a score of 96\/100. It certainly hadn\u2019t lost anything from that tasting in four years ago, and in fact, I\u2019d say it is maybe even better. With the oak and generosity of fruit is pretty good for what isn\u2019t considered a great vintage. Let\u2019s say I\u2019ll give that a separate (follow-up) review as well then.<\/p><p>The Bordeaux-style reds are also very good. Somewhere between Old and New World in style &#8211; with a firm backbone of fine tannin wedded to a softer texture and juicy acidity. Tonight there is a 2018 and a 2021 The \u201918 is Merlot-led, as is the \u201921, although having a slightly higher percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon. Both are still quite tight and lean &#8211; the palate squeezed and focussed. Plenty of muscle but also very athletic and toned. They need another five years in bottle to reveal their full potential. In fact, I\u2019d predict these to be drinking well in 2036.<\/p><p>Radburnd has a Wine Club that brings the cost of these premium bottles down considerably, and other benefits. The full range is on their website www.radburndcellars.co.nz. They are also in the process of moving into what might be their \u2018forever home\u2019 at the old Limmer property at Stonecroft, in the Gimblett Gravels. I\u2019ll be hoping to have a visit when I\u2019m down in Hawke\u2019s Bay next.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After spending some time with Kate Radburnd during judging at the New Zealand International Wine Show this year, it was a lovely way to round out the week, to be &hellip;
