Deep purple, the 2018 Porseleinberg Syrah reveals alluring aromas of dark plum, black cherry, blackberry, black pepper, dried lavender wood smoke and even some rose water. On the palate, this full-bodied South African Syrah offers great tension and flavor complexity, adding notes of ripe strawberry, iodine and earth. The long, lingering finish confirm an outstanding wine. 100% whole bunch fermentation, aged for 12 months in large oak barrels and a small portion in concrete eggs. Drink now until 2040.
