Pure, almost raw Syrah. Blackberry and dark cherry with violets, black olive and white pepper, then powdery tannins and a delicate, lifted finish closer to Cornas than the Cape. The fruit comes from dry-farmed bush vines planted in 1999 on well-drained decomposed granite, four kilometres from False Bay. Ninety per cent is fermented whole bunch with a submerged cap and occasional gentle pump-overs, then aged eleven months in large concrete and old 400 litre French oak. Suitable for vegans.
