Wine Style:	Full bodied & complex
When to Enjoy:	With a delicious meal to savour the intensity of this wine.
How to Serve:	At a pleasing 16 – 18° (not too cold and not our summer room temperature)
Our meal suggestions:	Pairs beautifully with beef, lamb, so try dishes like a pepper crusted sirloin steak 28 day aged tomahawk steak
The wine itself:	Savoury and complex, the wine shows white pepper and cranberries on the nose that opens to floral perfume and blackberry fruit. The savoury spice continues to the palate with a red fruit core and a fine peppery tannin.
What about the grapes?	100% Syrah
And the vineyards (terroir):	South-Westerly facing slopes ranging in altitude from 230-250m above sea level on decomposed granite soils. The vines are trellised on a seven-wire hedge system and we yield approximately eight tons per hectare.
How was it made:	The grapes were harvested at just over 23 Balling to capture the pepper spice that typifies the varietal. The fermentation temperature peaked at 28°C with regular pump-overs to ensure even extraction and a 30% portion was fermented with 25% whole bunches. The wine was matured for 12 months in 500l French oak barrels, with 20% new oak.
