Craven Wines, teknisk ark/fact sheet (cravenwines.com – linket fra cravenwines.com, hentet 2026-10-18): 2025 Craven Wines Syrah The Firs – område: Stellenbosch; 100% Syrah; alkohol 13.3%. Producentens noter (engelsk): Om vinen: Syrah is a grape that we both have a soft spot for. We think there are some special and unique plantings of Syrah in Stellenbosch. The grapes for our Syrah come from a great little vineyard in the ward of Devon Valley. It is planted on a rich, deep, red soil with a high clay content. The grapes are left 100% whole bunch and lightly stomped by foot to extract a little juice. Very gentle pumpovers are performed once or twice daily throughout fermentation, as we want to minimise extraction and maintain as many whole bunches as possible. After pressing, the wine is aged in a concrete tank for 10 months. We feel that elevage in concrete helps to showcase the purity of this vineyard site. Producentens noter (engelsk): Vineyard: The Firs
