De Meye Syrah 2021
R110,00
A burst of red fruit explodes onto the palate and lingers, red plum and black cherry flavours stand out layered with an intriguing and appealing subtle note of white pepper. Red fruit and sweet spice aromas are equally prominent on the nose. The wine builds up to a long dry finish where the sweet spice notes evolve into freshly baked hot cross bun aromas.
