Syrah 2021

Keermont Vineyards, producentens vinside (hentet 18. okt. 2026): 2021 Keermont Vineyards Syrah; druer: Syrah; alkohol 14%. Producentens noter (engelsk): Om vinen: 340 KEERMONT SYRAH is a blend of three different Syrah vineyard sites growing on Keermont Vineyards: Steepside Syrah: Growing on a North facing slope in deep, red clay-rich soils; this vineyard generally produces softer full bodied wines with rich, spicy flavours. Topside Syrah: An unirrigated west facing vineyard planted at 400m above sea level on rocky sandstone-based soil. Topside Syrah is usually an aromatic wine with a solid structure and high natural acid. Sweetwater Syrah: Situated in a rocky valley below the Fleurfontein spring, this is the coolest of the three Syrah sites and ripens the latest. Sweetwater Syrah is normally lighter and elegant in style with a herbal aroma. Producentens noter (engelsk): Vinification: All grapes used in producing our wines are grown on Keermont Vineyards. Small parcels of grapes are specifically selected according to ripeness, harvested by hand and vinified separately. Grapes are fermented ‘whole-berry’, with 15 % ‘whole-bunch’, and receive one or two gentle punch-downs per day. This wine spent 19 months maturing in seasoned 500 and 225 Litre French oak barrels before being bottled by hand on 21 October 2022. We produced 7867 bottles and 100 magnums.
