Kleinood Estate,Tamboerskloof Syrah 2017 MAGNUM
DESCRIPTION
The Kleinood Syrah 2017 captures the essence of classic Syrah with a unique twist. With medium-intensity aromas of violet and cinnamon spice that evolve into freshly crushed black pepper and red cherry, it has a clean complexity that makes for a delightful drinking experience. Still youthful, it also reveals smooth chocolate notes, hinting at wonderful aging potential. On the palate, fine-grained tannins add weight to a juicy mid-palate, delivering elegant concentration and refreshing depth. This versatile wine pairs beautifully with red meats, duck, or venison, but it’s also perfect to savor by a warm fire with good friends.
REGION
Stellenbosch
South Africa
Stellenbosch is undoubtedly South Africa’s most prestigious wine region. Located in the coastal region of the Western Cape, east of Cape Town, it enjoys a Mediterranean climate tempered by sea breezes and sheltered by surrounding mountains. Its varied terroir – granite, shale, and sandy soils – allows for the production of both powerful red wines and elegant whites.
While Cabernet Sauvignon and Bordeaux-style blends (with Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot) have built its reputation, Stellenbosch is also renowned for its refined Chenin Blancs, distinctive Chardonnays, and expressive Syrahs. Home to many iconic estates, this appellation remains a showcase of South African winemaking expertise.
