From Hawkes Bay, the 2007 Angel’s Dust Syrah has smoky bacon crisps on the nose – quite rustic and lacking a little freshness. The palate is soft and approachable, low acidity, very meaty with loads of bacon fat. Soft landing on the finish with just a touch of heat. But it is full of character and forms perfect week-day quaffing. Drink now. No known American importer.
