Granite Syrah 2021

  • Swartland

  • 4.2/5.0

A serious, sophisticated Syrah.
Deep purple with violet hints, this wine shows remarkable purity. The nose opens with intense black plums and cracked black pepper, backed by subtle violet notes and a distinctive granitic minerality. On the palate, it’s focused and refined – layers of blackberry and olive tapenade mingle with savory herbs and a touch of smoked meat. The tannins are fine-grained but present, balanced perfectly with fresh acidity. The finish is long and composed. [BBR Syrah Tasting Jan 2024]
