Stellenbosch, South Africa – 100% Syrah
Aromas of ripe red fruit, plum, blackberry, lavender, and crushed black pepper, with a savoury hint of black olive. On the palate, it is rich and spicy, with supple tannins and a smooth finish, as half the wine rests five months in older French oak. Grown on granite slopes of the Helderberg in Stellenbosch, cooled by the "Cape Doctor" wind off False Bay. Serve at 16°C to 18°C for optimal enjoyment. Perfectly pairs with spicy grilled meats, ribs and smoky barbecue.
