Description
This wine is made from a blend of Syrah and Mourvedre grapes. The wine is aged in oak for 12 months, and has a moderate amount of new oak. The wine has a traditionalist winemaking style, and is a good match for robust food.
77% Syrah, 23% Mourvedre. Very traditionalist winemaking is used here. A large portion of the Syrah and Mourv*dre iswhole-bunch fermented, with pumping over used to help extract flavours from the skins. Syrah from the cool Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge brings white pepper, liquorice, black cherries andblueberries to the blend. The Mourv*dre contributes soft wild-berry fruit and spice, softeningout the blend. Moderate use of new oak supports fine tannins on the palate.
This is a rich and generous yet balanced blend, aperfect partner for robust food. Nonew Frenchoak is used in the making of this wine, but rather aged in 2nd & 3rd fill barrels for 12 months.
