Description
This wine is made from 77% Syrah and 23% Mourvedre. The wine is traditionalist winemaking, meaning that a large portion of the wine is fermented with whole-bunching. This is done in order to extract flavors from the skins. The wine is made from wine from the cool Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge, which brings white pepper, liquorice, black cherries and blueberries to the blend. The Mourv*dre contributes soft wild-berry fruit and spice, softening out the blend. Moderate use of new oak supports fine tannins on the palate. This wine is a rich and generous yet balanced blend, perfect for robust food. Nonew French oak is used in the making of this wine, but rather aged in 2nd & 3rd fill barrels for 12 months.
