Surprisingly similar syrah to Cornas; but this is South African Kershaw looking so European; that wild herb, tobacco, sage, earth nose; obviously the terroir of Elgin; not as hot as Cornas so less rich more tight textured; oak behind; sounds like syrah aged all its barrel life on gross lees; 18 barriques; made by colleague Richard Kershaw MW #southafrica#elgin#cape#syrah#2012 13.5% — 9 years ago
