Syrah 2022 Cuvee Ameena

Alluring dark fruit infused with white pepper. The usual svelte, silky texture carries a rich, suited depth. Naturally fermented in 4,500-litre foudres and aged in second- and third-fill French oak barrels, allowing the purity of Elgin fruit to shine. Elegant, balanced, and inherently fresh, with a lingering farewell.

Fine-boned and discreet, with firm tannins from 100% whole-bunch fermentation. This beautiful Syrah from a cool-climate vineyard, 400m above sea level, is a restrained style offering an appetising nod to the Northern Rhône.

Naturally fermented in open tanks with low sulphur.

“Cuvée Ameena”, named after the winemaker’s first daughter, has been matured in 225-litre French oak barrels for 12 months. This traditional wine is fined with egg whites but unfiltered, which may result in a natural sediment and could benefit from decanting.
