Product information "Strandveld Syrah 2021"
The Strandveld Syrah is an immensely full-bodied and serious Syrah in classic Rhône style. Its delicious bouquet of red berry fruit, fragrant cloves and black pepper caresses the nose. On the lusciously rich palate, this superbly structured Syrah indulges with taut tannins and well-integrated oak notes, paired with intense nuances of black blackberries and savoury, fragrant hints in the background.

After the grapes were completely destemmed, they were gently crushed and first subjected to a 48-hour cold swelling phase. Fermentation was set in motion using selected Rhône yeasts and a controlled temperature of 22-26°C. The wine was pumped over twice daily to extract maximum color and aromas. Once fermentation was complete, the wine was aged for 18 months in selected French oak barrels (30% new wood). Before bottling, the Syrah was blended with a dash of Viognier (5%).
