Syrah Home Block 2021
This deep ruby coloured and very complex Syrah, made from the outstanding 2021 vintage - low yield, dry / hot summer and fall - spent 24 months in French oak, including 70% new. First the intermingling smells of black cherries and Black Doris plums dance with the sizzling charcoal, spices and caramelized tones. On the palate, tannins are broad and crisp, carrying a burst of blackberries and currants, softened by violets notes. The finish is long and silky, coated with toasted brioche, roasted nuts and brandy fragrance. A beautiful pairing with the finest cuisine dishes.
Optimum drinking time is 2023 to 2031, great ageing potential. Optimum serving temperature is room temperature (16-20 °C).
