Riley Harrison Black Hound Syrah 2023 (6 Bottles) Adelaide Hills, SA

Riley Harrison Black Hound Syrah 2023 is a spicy, lifted Adelaide Hills red from Riley Harrison, sourced from the Murdoch Hill vineyard near Oakbank. Made with 30% whole-bunch fermentation and matured for nine months in seasoned French oak, it delivers cool-climate poise with dark-fruited generosity and serious tannin finesse. Blackberry, dark cherry and violet burst from the glass, followed by black olive, cracked pepper, olive tapenade and a meaty game note. The Riley Harrison 2023 Black Hound Syrah is medium-bodied and silky through the middle, with subtle oak and a firm, long line of powdery tannins providing shape and drive. Pour this elegant Adelaide Hills Syrah with pepper-crusted venison, chargrilled lamb cutlets, smoky eggplant, beef brisket or mushroom burgers. Its peppery savouriness and bright dark fruit make it brilliant with fire-cooked dishes, while its polished structure lets it shine at a more refined dinner table.
