Cape Landing Reserve Syrah 2021

A wonderful and equally impressive follow-up to the superb 2020. Deep garnet hue here, the aromas include raspberries, cherries, florals, a hint of citrus and bay leaves. This is more dominant in exhibiting red fruits than the darker variety with hints of roast meats and cold tea. This wine continues the theme of the elegance of the northern Rhône as the inspiration and indeed, may even be a little more savoury in style than the 2020. Good focus and balance, seamless in structure, and the intensity is maintained for the full length. This is really good with eight to ten years ahead of it.
