Bilancia 2002 La Collina Syrah (Hawke's Bay)
- $80
This top New Zealand Syrah starts with lifted, floral peach and apricot notes, followed by a freight train of blackberries. The lush fruit persists on the palate, ending in a slow swell of ripe tannins. A triumph for winemakers-owners Warren Gibson and Lorraine Leheny. Drink now–2015. Imported by Sauvage Selections.

Bilancia 2008 Syrah-Viognier (Hawke's Bay)
- Editors' Choice
Bilancia is the private label of Warren Gibson, winemaker for Trinity Hill, and his partner, Lorraine Leheny. The 2008 Syrah-Viognier is a medium-bodied, crisp but very pretty wine, featuring maraschino cherries and citrus blossoms, with just a fine thread of tannin on the finish.

Bilancia 2003 Syrah-Viognier Shiraz-Viognier (Hawke's Bay)
- $30
With no La Collina bottling in 2003, all the best fruit is in this single bottling—and the quality shines. Lovely pepper and berry scents pick up a touch of meaty complexity. Smooth and richly textured, with clean blackberry flavors that end in supple tannins. Imported by Sauvage Selections.
