We believe in working gently with our precious crop and therefore all the grapes were handpicked. This was a partial whole-bunch fermentation, which took place in stainless steel tanks and without the addition of cultured yeast. The skins and juice were mixed through a combination of delestage, punch-downs and also pump-overs. Towards the end of fermentation, the number of pump-overs was reduced to ensure that no harsh, dry tannins were extracted.
Fermentation took place at temperatures of 26°C to 30°C (at the height of fermentation). The wine was drained from the skins after fermentation was completed. No press juice was added to the wine. Our Syrah wines are aged in large wooden vats for at least 6 months before bottling.
Our Syrah displays expressive aromas of blackberries, plum, cracked black pepper, and fragrant violets. The Swartland fruit brings richness and spice, while Stellenbosch contributes freshness, elegance, and fine structure. The palate is vibrant and balanced, with silky tannins and a long, savoury finish.
