See prior notes. I think this is just on the other side of peak, still drinking beautifully.

Can be hard to find with any age on them in Charleston, especially Syrah so I jumped on this. Forceful smokey dusty earth notes with herb Berry flavors highlighted by a lingering wild/rustic quality you seem to find in good South African wine. Lovely integration of tannin and acidity. In a great place and drinking beautifully.

Shiraz not Chenin. Rich and wonderful, every bit as spicy as we were after so many bottles

This is the first wine I purchased as a result of a tasting at the vineyard. It is as juicy as I remember it--currant and jammy.
