  Really tasty Syrah from South Africa. Lots of black fruit and oak. Blackberry, currant, and pepper on the palate. Think this is up there with a lot of other New World Syrah at the same price point. 91 points.

  South African Syrah/Shiraz competing on the world stage (Zoom!): Wow, just lovely. Really big Syrah nose, with peat smoke adding interest. 35% new oak. Lots of pepper and blackcurrant. You can tell it's a young wine, but the tannins are interesting. Pure fruit. So relaxed and balanced. Hints of chocolate and game on the finish.
