Information about "Keermont Topside Syrah 2017"
With its deep red plum tones in the glass, the Keermont Topside Syrah pampers the palate with a stunning bouquet of black fruits and a hint of fragrant violets as well as hints of white pepper. On the palate clear and elegant with a tight acidity, spicy fruit nuances and wonderful floral notes. The tight and slightly chalky tannin structure gives the wine a juicy and dry finish with naked nuances of red fruits, aniseed, fennel and a subtle mineral salinity.
The Topside Syrah vineyards are located high up on the west-facing slopes of the Stellenbosch mountain range (350m above sea level). The altitude and soil (sandstone and granite) contribute to the spicy character and fine tannin structure of the wine.

Das handgelesene Traubengut für diesen meisterlichen Syrah stammt zu 100 % aus Keermonts eigenen Weinbergen und wurde je nach Reb-Block und Reifegrad separat vinifiziert. Der Gärungsvorgang fand auf natürliche, traditionelle und besonders behutsame Art und Weise in offenen Fermentern statt. Nach Abschluss der Gärung reifte der Wein 20 Monate lang in französischen Barriques (500 l) und wurde anschließend ungefiltert per Hand auf die Flasche gefüllt
