About this Item
'Life's an expedition, and the path unfolds as we explore. The quest for a Minimalist Syrah is a journey, a series of connected dots across the Cape Winelands. This year's Connect the Dots unites exceptional fruit from Agulhas Elgin and Stellenbosch, cool-climate havens where the varietal thrives. Years of exploration have refined our approach, allowing us to pinpoint the ideal dots - the vineyards, dedicated growers, and expressive fruit. This bottle captures a unique moment in Cape Syrah, a tapestry woven from remarkable components.' - Sam Lambson

Critics Ratings
'The nose shows a little roasted coffee-like reduction before red and black berries, olive and hints of pepper and spice while the palate has impressive depth and texture given a moderate alcohol of 13.5% - layers of subtle flavour, moderate acidity and soft, powdery tannins.' - Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 91/100 (Jan 2022)
