Simonsig Merindol Syrah 2020

R600,00

Named in honour of the picturesque French village that serves as the ancestral home of the Malan family, Merindol Syrah is a heartfelt tribute to the pursuit of winemaking excellence that spans three generations at Simonsig. Nestled in the embrace of Stellenbosch’s rich terroir, where the vines thrive in the deep crimson Hutton soil, Merindol is a shining embodiment of a meticulously handcrafted Syrah nurtured by the elements.

This wine exudes an essence of elegance and refinement, destined to evolve with greater complexity and depth during 8 to 10 years of careful cellaring.

In the cellar

The vineyard was harvested on 17 March 2020. Most of the grapes were destemmed, with 16% whole bunches added to the ferment. The grapes underwent cold maceration for two days in the tank, after which fermentation commenced. The wine spent a total of 22 days on the skins before pressing. Malolactic fermentation and ageing occurred in 500-litre French oak barrels.
