About this Item

2017 Trinity Syrah
4 (1 x 4) 750ml

Terracura Trinity Syrah is a distinguished red wine from South Africa's Swartland region, crafted by the Terracura winery. The 2017 vintage is particularly notable, produced from a single vineyard on Kasteelberg Mountain, planted in 1995 on schist soils.

Critics Ratings

'From a single Kasteelberg vineyard planted on schist in 1995 selected on account of it being particularly distinctive. Potent aromatics of dark berries, a hint of olive, lily, fynbos, earth and spice. The palate has lovely fruit definition - it's intense but not weighty, lemon-like acidity providing freshness while the tannins are fine but not too fine. More particular and more direct than its counterpart above.'

- Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 96/100 (Nov 2020)
