Reyneke Estate Syrah 2023
The Reyneke Estate Syrah is a refined, yet powerful example of South African Syrah. At the winery, the hand harvested fruit underwent spontaneous fermentation. A portion (30%) included whole bunches and was fermented in a combination of open-top concrete fermenters and submerged cap fermenters. The wine was then matured for 16 months in seasoned oak barrels, 2500L foudré and second-fill 400L barrels. The Reyneke Estate Syrah displays layered aromatics of mulberries, black cherry and plum, complemented by cardamom, allspice and a delicate floral note of lavender. The palate is pure and elegant, with juicy dark fruit framed by fine but structured tannins. A finish of white pepper and savoury spice lends depth and complexity to the wine.
