The Neil Ellis Groenekloof Syrah has a vibrant colour and exudes delicious dark fruit aromas with spicy scents. The palate is ample and fresh with handy tannins. Its round texture carries the alcohol in an elegant and soft way and it ends in a long and satisfying finish.

Hand-picked grapes, gently crushed and then fermented on the skins in open fermenters with careful circulation to extract colour, flavour and tannins. The malolactic fermentation took place in French oak foudres, and the wine then matured for 16 months in French 500-litre barrels, 5% of which were new wood and two-year-old and older barrels. After maturing, the Syrah was blended with 12% Cinsault. Special care was taken to integrate the fruitiness into the wine.
