100% Syrah
Elim
Sourced from the distinct shale, gravel, and Ferricrete soils of Elim, this 100% Syrah was made with a minimalist approach. After a natural fermentation in open-top fermenters, the wine spent 10 months aging in a combination of new and older French oak barrels. This is a sophisticated Syrah with excellent aging potential.
“Matured for 10 months in barrel, partially new. Hugely aromatic with notes of red berries, fynbos and intense pepper. Light but not too light, with lemon-like acidity and silky tannins. Elegant and seamless, with no dip on the mid-palate. 96/100”
