Critics Ratings

'The lighter of the two Gabriëlskloof soil-focused Syrahs, this is an impressive first release on Peter-Allan Finlayson's watch. You can sense the delicate hand of a Pinot Noir specialist here: light, elegant and ethereal with subtle reduction, clove spice and fresh acidity. Drink 2018-23.' - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2017, 93/100

'Own grapes. Black fruit, intense pepper and a slight smoky note on the nose. The palate displays excellent concentration with fresh acidity and a properly dry finish. Currently quite stern, it will definitely benefit from a year of three in bottle.' - Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 92/100

'2015 has the lighter, more lifted aromas of the pair of syrahs in this range, with the dried peach note found on many of the reds here. A touch more immediate charm & elegance, while well structured. Both these more savoury & serious than Estate Syrah. 20% new oak on both.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide, 4.5* (92/100)
