Syrah on Sandstone 2021
R 530.00
The Syrah on Sandstone site is mountainous and made up of broken Sandstone, making it incredibly tough for vineyards to grow. This merciless environment leads to natural low vigour and minimal yields, resulting in a complex, unique wine. Although looking strong and happy, our sandstone syrah blocks bear very little fruit with tremendous concentration.
Crushed blueberries, black plums and mixed spice lead on the nose while the palate introduces a fresh, minty herbaceousness and texture of olive pith. Those signature chalky tannins again hold the wine in perfect balance.
