Product information "De Trafford Syrah 393 2020"
The De Trafford Syrah 393 flows into the glass in bright dark purple and at the same time ensnares the nose with dense and lush aromas of spicy blueberries, a hint of pomegranate, subtle herbal notes and subtle tones of white pepper. The palate is caressed by delicious nuances of ripe berry fruit and lively spices, coupled with a crisp and tannic backbone and a long-lasting and classically dry finish.
This high-dollar Syrah gets its name "393" from De Trafford's own vineyard on Mont Fleur Farm, where the grapes thrive at an altitude of 393 meters above sea level on the slopes of the Helderberg Mountains.

The grapes were hand-picked, 90 ntrappt in the cellar, crushed in small open steel tanks and mixed with the remaining 10% grapes on the whole bunch. During spontaneous and natural fermentation at a maximum of 30°C, the cap of pomace was submerged by hand one to three times a day for 14 days. After a month, the wine was pressed in the traditional basket press and transferred to the barrel, where the malolactic fermentation was completed. The wine was aged for one year in small, slowly toasted French barriques, of which 30% were new wood. In the second year, the wine was aged in old oak barrels with a capacity of 700 liters per barrel. After a total aging of 20 months, the wine was bottled unfined and unfiltered by hand.
