Keermont Syrah is a blend of three different Syrah vineyard sites growing on Keermont
Vineyards: Keermont Syrah 2017 has a bright red colour with a lighter hue. The bouquet is explosive with spicy red fruit and notes of sandalwood, tea leaf, cloves, and orange rind. The wine has a dry, gentle entry onto the palate, and opens up with cherry and raspberry flavours complimented by savoury spice and a black pepper note. A gentle, but tight tannin structure and good natural acid keep the flavours focussed into a tidy succulent finish. Drink 2022-2032.ABV 14%

Keermont Syrah is a blend of three different Syrah vineyard sites growing on Keermont
Vineyards:
Steepside Syrah: Growing on a North facing slope in deep, red clay-rich soils; this vineyard
generally produces powerful full-bodied wines with rich, spicy flavours.
Topside Syrah: An unirrigated west facing vineyard planted at 400m above sea level on
rocky sandstone-based soil. Topside Syrah is usually a more aromatic wine with good
structure and natural acid.
Sweetwater Syrah: Situated in a rocky valley below the Fleurfontein spring, this is the
coolest of the three Syrah sites and ripens the latest. Sweetwater Syrah is normally lighter
and elegant in style with a herbal aroma.
All grapes used in producing our wines are grown on Keermont Vineyards. Small parcels of
grapes are specifically selected according to ripeness, harvested by hand and vinified
separately. This process is carried out gently and naturally in open top fermenters using
traditional methods only. This wine spent 20 months maturing in seasoned 500 and 225 litre
French oak barrels before being bottled by hand without filtration on 9 November 2017.
