Sons of Sugarland Syrah 2024 Bottle size: 750ml
South Africa, Stellenbosch
R490
‘Grapes from Karibib in the Polkadraai Hills. 100% whole-bunch fermented and matured in concrete. The lower crop in 2024 has resulted in a wine of more raw power than is usual for this bottling. The nose is evocative, with layers of red and black berries, black olive, raw meat, dried rose, dried herbs, and a crack of pepper. The palate, meanwhile, delivers immense fruit concentration, fresh acidity, and grippy tannins, leading to a bone-dry finish. Buckle up – this is a ride. Alc: 13.9%.’ – Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 96/100

Producer information | From the Young Gunners who brought us the Patatsfontein Wines comes the Sons of Sugarland Syrah. It is made by Shiraz junkie Reenen Borman, of Boschkloof, in a fresh, vibrant style. Reenen's accomplished hand and ever-increasing skills are especially impressive considering his young age. He's possibly our finest new-generation winemaker at present and his latest releases are just epic! |
