Product information "Rijk's Pinotage Syrah 2013"

This new Rijks innovation - the virgin vintage of Rijks Pinotage Syrah flows into the glass in an intense red colour, exuding lively complex aromas of ripe mulberries, dark chocolate and a fine touch of fragrant fynbos. While the Pinotage in this cuvée provides a full fruit expression and lush fullness, the Syrah brings great structure and an exciting blend of fine spices into play. On the palate it is very creamy and ends with a finish of well rounded and ripe tannins. The perfectly integrated oak wood notes give the wine spicy wood nuances, which combine perfectly with the intense fruit of this wine. Elegance, finesse, complexity and an exciting fruit concentration characterize this full-bodied and exciting drop.

Treatment in the cellar

Nach einer zweitägigen Kaltquellphase fermentierte das Traubengut unter dreimal täglichem Untertauchen des Tresterhuts in Tanks aus Edelstahl. Nach Abschluss der Gärung wurde der Wein in Fässer umgefüllt, wo die malolaktische Gärung ihren Abschluss fand. Anschließend reifte der Wein 22 Monate in französischen Barriques, von denen 67% Neuholz sowie 33% zweitbelegtes Holz ausmachten. Nach Abfüllung reifte der Wein noch weitere Zeit auf der Flasche, bevor er zum fertigen Genuss herausgegeben wurde.
