| Description: | 95 pts Wine Advocate Dec 2022 Beginning with a floral grip, the 2019 Iron Syrah offers a seductive nose filled with red flowers, wild raspberry and dusty cherry as elegant spice tones waft from the glass. Medium to full-bodied, the wine has a fine mineral tension and firm, rocky tannins that lift the mid-palate. As the tannins loosen, the wine uncoils in the mouth, leading to a food-friendly and delightfully fragranced finish. This was made with 100% whole-cluster Syrah, and the wine rested for one year in 50% new French oak. It's delicious! 3,300 bottles produced. 2022-2038 95 pts Wine Spectator 5/31/23 A beautiful, elegant red, with milled white pepper and fresh rosemary notes, which are abundantly fragrant on the nose but more subdued on the palate, plus pure accents of ripe black raspberry and wild strawberry fruit, orange peel and dark chocolate. Reveals fine, silky tannins, which emerge to firm the mouthwatering finish. Drink now through 2033. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 109 cases made, 5 cases imported. 4 ½ Stars 2022 Platter's South African Wine Guide Dryland Malmesbury block on deep koffieklip (ferricrete) site. As expected, 19 (93 pts) quietest of the red trio, yet with the most tightly packed, almost linear focus. Cassis & blackberries, pot-pourri, fine tannins very present but balanced. |
