| Description: | Organically Farmed. 100% Syrah. Tim Atkin 99 Points - "This remarkable site has established itself as one of the worlds great Syrah vineyards in less than a decade. Sourced from four blocks totally 4.5 hectares, Callie Louws stunning red is just short of perfection this year, but is still brilliant, confirming the evolution in style of the Jamet-inspired 2018. Leafy, spicy, rose petal aromas are supported by pure red berry fruit, detailed tannins and the faintest hint of oak.". Vinous Media 96 Points - "The 2019 Porseleinberg has a brilliant nose, as I would expect, presenting an exquisitely defined mixture of red and black fruit with hints of honey and orange blossom, pressed iris petals and incense. The medium-bodied, harmonious palate offers fine-grained tannins and a judicious touch of white pepper and clove. Very Rhne-like in style, it reminds me of a Jamet Cte-Rtie tasted the previous month. Absolute class from Callie Lowe, and better than the 2018 in my opinion.". Whole-cluster fermented with native yeast in concrete. Aged in concrete eggs and foudre. |
