2019 Patina Syrah, Boekenhoutskloof, Swartland

From the Boekenhoutskloof property Goldmine, on the Kasteelberg, next to the Mullineux’s Roundstone, this is a brilliant Schist-based Syrah. It’s as elegant as Syrah in the Swartland gets: peppery, floral, and beautifully fine-boned. Incredible length and savouriness define the long finish. This is a delicious, charming wine.
