About this Item

2015 Syrah
6 (1 x 6) 750ml

Tucked into the foothills of the dramatic Riviersonderend mountain range just outside the town of Greyton is Lismore Estate Vineyards. Californian Samantha O'Keefe has found paradise and the perfect terroir in this valley, and single-handedly successfully pioneered a new ward classification for her wines in Greyton. Her passion and hard work combined with a philosophy of purity and site expression has established Lismore among one of the new jewels in the Cape Winelands.

Winemakers personal tasting note:

'An exotic experience which shifts your mind to another place. Cassis, blackberry and cherry. White pepper, ground herbs and the strong floral perfume of crushed violets. Light and elegant, but structured with a fresh acidity. To experience the best this wine has to offer, decanting is suggested. Time in the bottle will allow integration, the deepening of layers and full expression of the fruit.' - Sam O'Keefe
