Information about "Stellenbosch Reserve Syrah 2023"
The Stellenbosch Reserve Syrah enchants with its alluring aromas of red and black fruits. Notes of cranberry, ripe cherries, dark plums, and cassis intertwine with delicate hints of spices such as nutmeg, Christmas spice, and a whisper of vanilla. On the palate, this smooth Syrah presents a lavish character, supported by soft, ripe tannins and an extraordinarily juicy mid-palate. The vibrant fruity notes previously captured in the nose are reflected on the palate, beautifully complemented by a refreshing acidity and a velvety finish.
The grapes were vinified in open stainless steel tanks. A portion was fermented whole-bunch to preserve the classic spicy pepper character and freshness in the wine. During fermentation, the must was pumped over three times daily. After fermentation, the wine matured for 18 months in a combination of 300l and 500l oak barrels before bottling.
