The goal at Radford Dale Syrah was to create a style that combines the classic Rhône style with the terroir and unique character of his home, the Helderberg region of South Africa. This outstanding Syrah presents oriental spice nuances as well as aromas of dark fruits in the nose. This highly endowed Syrah is characterised by its reserved manner on the palate and its immensely fine tannin structure, typical for Stellenbosch's unique terroir. It pampers with ripe and dark fruit as well as nuances of black pepper on the middle palate. The taste experience is rounded off with a fresh and tart finish.

Treatment in the cellar

The grapes for this Shiraz were fermented naturally without any added yeast. After fermentation, the grapes were left on the skins for another week before the wine was transferred to barrels. The malolactic fermentation took place in barrels. After 19 months of ageing in barrels, the wine from the different barrels was put into a tank and left to rest in the cool cellar for two months. The wine was bottled without filtration.
