An elegant, medium-bodied Swartland Syrah featuring rich dark fruit, pepper, and spice notes, balanced by gentle earthiness, bright acidity, and refined tannins. Sourced from 20-25-year-old dryland vines and matured in older 500L French oak barrels.
“W.O. Swartland. 20% whole-bunch fermentation. Matured for 10 months in old 500-litre barrels. Black berries, violets, fynbos, olive and pepper on the nose. Good fruit density, bright acidity and nicely grippy tannins. A clever dollop of sweetness only adding to overall appeal.” Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za
