Description
From a single-vineyard in the Swartland, this 2022 Syrah delivers bold structure and refined clarity. Dark fruit richness meets chalk-like tannins in a wine clearly built for ageing and serious enjoyment.
Tasting Notes
The nose offers redberry, pomegranate and a faint sprinkle of white pepper with hints of fynbos and cured-meat savoury edge. On the palate the wine is medium- to full-bodied, with layers of plum, blackberry and raspberry, detailed tannins and a vibrant chalky finish.
