‘Schist soils on the Roundstone estate supply the core of this wonderful, textbook Swartland Syrah from a power couple who understand the variety as well as anyone in the Cape. Engagingly aromatic, with evident 90% whole bunches, notes of blood, black olive and garrigue and a core of succulent dark berry fruit. Wonderfully drinkable. 2023-29’ – Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2022, 94/100
‘This Swartland Syrah has a classic perfume of wild-growing white Watsonia Lilies, fresh mulberries and black olive pips. The structured palate follows through with intricate layers of kumquats, dark plums, sour cherry and star anise and finishes with powerful and velvety tannins.’ – Winemaker

| Producer information | At the cutting-edge of SA fine wine, the Mullineuxs have received many ground-breaking awards and, since 2007, have focused their Swartland efforts on Syrah and Chenin Blanc. Their extensive knowledge of Swartland soils, and what Andrea calls a 'growing technical maturity', has consistently led to the release of some of the most definitive expressions of the Swartand's various terroirs. With over a decade of dedication to winemaking in the Swartland, and considering the consistency and track record across their various bottlings, Chris and Andrea Mullineux are one of SA's top producers. |
