Tasting Notes

"The 2025 Syrah Swartland comes from schist and shale soils in Kasteelberg, using a submerged cap during maceration and aged in 2,000-litre conical-shaped Austrian vats for 11 months. This is tightly wound on the nose, more backward than the Stellenbosch Syrah, with a little gunpowder infusing the black fruit, maybe a touch of curry leaf too. Superb delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with edgy tannins, very good tension, a tad more angular than the Ceres Plateau Syrah, with a liberal sprinkling of cracked black pepper towards the persistent finish. Give this a couple of years in bottle – excellent." - Neal Martin, Vinous
