TASTING NOTE:
This is an elegantly proportioned single-site Syrah. The nose is layered and complex with aromas of violet, blueberry and rosemary. The palate reveals darker berry fruit and a more savoury profile with notes of black peppercorn.
Swanesang (Swansong) refers to this single vineyard’s tragic fate. Like many of the old dry-farmed bush vines in the Lower Helderberg, it was grubbed up at the end of the 2017 harvest. This particular block produced many of the wines made on the old Bredell farm.
