Syrah - Zevenwacht

The Syrah from Zevenwacht at the Western Cape offers a dense, purple-red color in the swirled glass. With a little time in the glass, this red wine from South Africa presents wonderfully expressive aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, blueberry and plum, rounded off by further fruity nuances.

The Zevenwacht Syrah impresses with its elegantly dry flavor profile. It was bottled with 5.6 grams of residual sugar. As you would expect from a wine in the high-quality range, this South African, despite all its dryness, delights with the finest balance. Excellent flavor does not necessarily require a lot of residual sugar. On the palate, the texture of this powerful red wine is wonderfully silky. Thanks to the balanced acidity, the Syrah caresses the mouth with a soft feel, without lacking juicy liveliness at the same time. The finish of this youthful red wine from the Western Cape region, more precisely from Stellenbosch, finally delights with a beautiful aftertaste.

Vinification of the Syrah from Zevenwacht

The powerful Syrah from South Africa is a single-varietal wine, vinified from the Syrah grape variety. After being harvested by hand, the grapes are quickly brought to the press house. There they are sorted and gently crushed. This is followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. After fermentation is complete, the Syrah can continue to harmonize on the fine lees for several months.
