Information about "Keermont Steepside Syrah 2020"
The Keermont Steepside Syrah is an incredibly intense wine of bright strawberry red in the glass. Spicy as well as floral aromas enchant the nose, accompanied by fine hints of cinnamon, ripe strawberries and blackcurrants. On the palate, this cracker of a Syrah presents itself full-bodied and broad with ripe nuances of spicy fruits. Its firm structure gives the wine a juicy, dry and long finish, accompanied by lively and hearty nuances of red fruits.
The vineyards of Steepside Syrah are located at an altitude of 300 m above sea level on fertile soils of red clay with a particularly high iron and quartz content. These deep granitic soils, in combination with intense sunlight, produce incredibly strong and well-structured wines with slightly herbaceous and wonderfully spicy aromas.

Das handgelesene Traubengut für diesen meisterlichen Syrah stammt zu 100 % aus Keermonts eigenen Weinbergen und wurde je nach Reb-Block und Reifegrad separat vinifiziert. Der Gärungsvorgang fand auf natürliche, traditionelle und besonders behutsame Art und Weise in offenen Fermentern statt. Nach Abschluss der Gärung reifte der Wein 20 Monate lang in französischen Barriques (500 l) und wurde anschließend ungefiltert per Hand auf die Flasche gefüllt
