2018 was the third vintage of the Great Drought in the Cape and yields were again significantly lower than normal. However, by improving soil health with cover crops and mulch and by reducing crops early, the resulting wines have lovely concentration but also a beautiful freshness and energy.

The GRANITE Syrah is always the most perfumed and elegant of our single-terroir Syrahs, and the 2018 vintage is particularly firm and tight. Ageing potential 15 – 25 years. Decanting recommended when opened young.
