Groot Phesantekraal Syrah
VARIETAL:
Shiraz

VINTAGE:
2023

MORE INFORMATION:
The 2023 Syrah impresses with a bright bouquet of white pepper, red currant, raspberry, cedar, tobacco, and fennel. On the palate, it reveals a tight structure with vibrant red currant and berry compote flavours, complemented by fennel, dried sage, and a hint of black olive brine. Its strong mid-palate and youthful character suggest excellent aging potential. This ultra-premium cool-climate wine from 25-year-old vines will evolve beautifully over the next 10 to 15 years.

Pair the 2023 Syrah with grilled lamb chops, rosemary, and garlic, or a rich, mushroom risotto. The wine's robust flavours and structure complement the savoury, earthy elements of these dishes.
