Scions of Sinai 'Swanesang' Syrah 2024
R 436.00
Grapes from a 0.7ha vineyard planted in 1999. 85% whole-cluster fermentation before maturation lasting 12 months, 80% in concrete and 20% in old oak. Evocative aromatics – an initial touch of reduction, not unwelcome, giving way to dark berries, lilies, herbs and a twist of black pepper. The palate offers generous fruit, neatly balanced by fresh acidity, the tannins fine-grained and mouth-coating. There’s a particularly appealing suppleness to the wine in this vintage – harmonious and assured. Alc: 13%.
CE’s rating: 95/100
