Syrah 2010


Winemakers comments: Grapes are sourced exclusively from Malmesbury in the Swartland. The fruit is picked at optimum ripeness and fermented in Stainless Steel with selected Rhone strain yeast. Maturation in French oak on two thirds of the wine and the balance remains unoaked. 

TASTING NOTES: Intense ruby red colour with crushed black pepper and ripe dark fruit flavours. Full bodied with silky smooth tannins and a lingering palate. Subtle use of oak ensures a good balance between fruit and wood flavours.
