About the wine
A South African Syrah with notes of the Rhône
- Just west of Cape Town, surrounded by mountains, is the Elgin Valley – home to cool climate growing conditions and shale-based soils. They’re what give this Syrah its unique lighter body and freshness.
- With blueberry flavors and savory spice notes it’s delicious with grilled meat and good company.
- If you’re a fan of old-world-style reds, this savory Syrah is your bag. Decant and pair it with your favorite bbq meal.
