Bekkers Syrah 2020

Share

2020 was not the easiest vintage in McLaren Vale but Emmanuelle and Toby Bekkers have managed to coax out a stylish wine that is understated yet complex. it’s intriguing thanks to a mix of black olive, salt bush, fruits of the forrest and new leather aromas with prominent high quality oak well matched. There is then the Bekkers trademark seductive, silky texture with fine yet focussed flavours before building to a soaring, dark fruited finish. There is plenty of flesh on ample, integrated tannins that drives a sustained, hearty finish. One of the best Syrah’s yet from Bekkers.
