Syrah

Beef, Lamb, Poultry, Game (deer, venison)

Our Syrah is grown as echalas vines (three sites) as well as trellised vines (two sites) on clay-shale rich soil with a high component of quartz rock. Our Syrah plantings capture all the different aspects of the Olifantsberg Mountain, situated at 300 m to 470 m above sea level. The cooler micro-climate of the traditional echalas has a higher acidity and a different aromatic complexity than the trellised vines.

Our vineyard and winery are located on the rocky sloped of the Olifantsberg mountain overlooking the breedekloof valley. We always aim to have a natural approach and minimal intervention throughout the lifetime of the wines. Our main focus is producing wines that capture our unique location, diverse soils and natural expression of our vineyards. Our vineyards produce grapes which culminate in wines with alluring purity of fruit and elegance.
