Gabrielskloof, Syrah on Sandstone 2018 Chenin Blanc 17 months in old oakPlace: Western Cape, South Africa Grape: Syrah Vibe: Natural, richer This is particularly delicious. As the name suggests, fruit from older vine Syrah planted on mountainous sandstone based vineyards. This gives us naturally restricted yields and all the potential complexity that comes with that. 50% whole bunches. Lots to unpack here, but it does the work for you. Floral and peppery, leading into darker fruits and some meatiness. Textbook. ABV: 13%
