TASTING NOTES
With an alcohol of 13%, the wine is stylistically more towards Pinot Noir than Syrah. An awesome, super elegant wine. All the grapes were fermented 100% whole bunch. This means that whole clusters of grapes were chucked into the tank, not removing stems/stalks, retaining as much of the terroir/vineyard as possible. The juice underwent spontaneous fermentation and was left on the skins for 2 weeks - pressed into older French oak barrels and aged for a year.
For those of you that like Pinot Noir-styled wines, this is the closest Syrah to this you’ll find. Light in colour with mouth quenching acidity, this wine clearly demonstrates true terrior. A key theme in most of Pieter's wines. The palate is bright and fresh with red fruit, balanced out with a silky refreshing finish.
