Savage Wines Auction Syrah 2019
100% Syrah
Grapes were hand-sorted into a 1.5 ton open top fermenter. 50% whole cluster, manual punch-downs four times per day with regular aeration. Aged for 10 months in a clay amphora before bottling. The wine spent 18 months in bottle prior to the auction.
Tasting Notes: Red and dark fruit, fynbos, grilled herbs and black olive along with a fine line of spice. Tannins are fine-grained but robust, a wine worthy of a few years in the bottle.
Ready to drink now or over the next 10 years.
Winemaker: Duncan Savage
