2022 Rush the Stage Red received 91 Points from MW Cameron Douglas

“Aromas and flavours of strawberry compote and fresh raspberries, there’s a layer of white spice and a stony crumbled stones mineral layer. Tannins add a youthful tautness, are plentiful and contrast the core flavours seamlessly. Acidity offers a refreshing quality and carries the core fruits throughout the palate perfectly. Youthful, fresh, fruity and well made with a medium finish and length. Best drinking from 2023 through 2027+.“

Responsible Hedonist 2022 Rush the Stage Red Syrah featured in Cuisine Noir’s 2023/2024 Issue, which you can get digitally or in print!


Out of New Zealand comes this light-bodied Syrah that is vegan-friendly with notes of red plum, wild strawberry and a hint of spice. The silky smooth palate makes it easy to enjoy with a great steak, tacos and even pasta.
