This is the very first Syrah release from vineyard planted in 2004 and South Africa’s only continental terroir,

 

Clear, day bright, pale with green reflections and slight coppery rim, oily.

December, January and February are usually the hottest months of the year, either you are in Cape Town or Johannesburg or Durban or in the bush,

 

Though sharing this with you, “breaking up with Pinot Noir” published on the Guild of Sommeliers Website discussion forum, simply hilarious and so much sense!
