“Syrah is the Cape’s most exciting red grape” – Tim Atkin MW

“Top South African Syrahs kick arse” – Duncan Savage

The final seminar of the day will explore Syrah, moderated by Corlien Morris of retailer Wine Menu in Kramerville. Corlien has been selling South Africa’s top wines in Johannesburg for the best part of a decade.

Should we never say “No” to Syrah? Is, as Tim Atkin MW says in his 2021 Special Report, Syrah the Cape’s most exciting red grape? In our recent podcast with Christian Eedes of winemag.co.za – he agreed. These are two expert opinions that wine lovers should not ignore.

We will taste 7 top examples of Syrah [list here] from the Ex Animo portfolio with each of the winemakers presenting and taking about their wines. An audience Q and A session will conclude the session.
