Zevenwacht
Zevenwacht is a Stellenbosch wine estate with a 300-year history and vineyards across its maritime home farm and Zevenrivieren on the Helshoogte Pass. Known for Chenin Blanc, Pinotage, Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon and the Tin Mine blends, the estate combines regional character with a strong focus on vineyard-led winemaking.
Description
The Syrah shows concentrated raspberry and black berry fruit, that opens to a floral perfume with white pepper and herbs on the nose. The palate has dense fruit intensity with a velvety mid palate, that finishes with a fine peppery tannin.
Food Pairing
We’ve tried it with a few variations of lamb such as lamb loin chops spiced with salt, black pepper and rosemary, leg of lamb slow roasted, well salted, peppered and served with roast potatoes, sweet potatoes and spicy gravy. Oven roasted vegetables with rosemary and garlic could be a vegan alternative.
