Reyneke
Biodynamic Winemaking. The future lies right at the beginning. There's a lot to be said for the way wine used to be made. Back when the Reyneke farm first began as ‘Uitzicht’ in1863 there were no chemicals or technological advancements. Just the land and nature. Uitzicht (which is the Dutch for ‘View’) is perched overlooking Stellenbosch and False Bay. It has north east and south facing slopes. The best land is planted with vines and the remainder complements the vineyards with pasture compost-making and pockets of wilderness. It’s the kind of balance that’s far more important than ensuring the spreadsheets all balance out. And it’s the true time-honoured tradition of winemaking.
Description
The 2019 Reyneke Biodynamic Syrah is a concentrated and aromatic wine, displaying a complex array of red fruit aromas, including red cherry and bramble, with notes of lavender, clove, and black pepper. The palate is elegant and structured, featuring flavors of cooked meat, spiced undertones, and a touch of minerality. The finish is long, with balanced acidity and chalky tannins, providing a sense of depth and persistence.
Food Pairing
This wine pairs well with dishes such as cured cheeses, spicy foods, and red meats. Its robust structure and spiced profile complement rich and flavorful meals.
