Youthful in appearance, Mont Rochelle Syrah 2022's nose has generous amounts of violets, intense red fruit, and white pepper. The palate displays some juicy, vibrant red fruit and spice, yet remains very fresh and elegant with a well-rounded and polished tannin profile.

The Syrah is great accompaniment to game or dark meat, but it is also always the right choice for savory dishes or on its own.

ageing : The wine is ready for drinking now, but will most definitely reward careful cellaring for at least 10 years from vintage.

Our Syrah, named such due to the "Old World" style of winemaking utilised, is far more traditional than our "New World" location would suggested with spice, herbs, pepper and black fruit dominating in the wines profile. The Shiraz vineyards on Mont Rochelle range from 200m above sea level to 450m above sea level with an incredibly steep gradient ensuring that we have a diverse flavour profile from the fruit produced. This translates into a Syrah wine with abundant layers of fruit flavours and complexity.

in the cellar : The Mont Rochelle Syrah matured for eighteen months in French oak.
