With a deep, purple colour, red berries and hints of charcoal with faint liquorice on the nose are set against gentle floral notes in the background, making way for blueberries, cassis, and nuances of sweet, dried herbs.
The palate displays layers of berry fruit with spices of pepper, cinnamon and clove. A soft entry on the palate is supported with supple tannins, impressive length and bright, acidity.
Serve at 12-15 Deg.
Pair with mushrooms and pasta and full-flavored dishes like glazed ham, roast lamb.

Survivor Syrah

This intense dark coloured wine has a pungent rich nose of liquorice and black fruits with nuances of cloves, thyme and white pepper. With the aromas being so expressive, one would expect a bold palate, but on the contrary. Being full-bodied and well-structured these aromas are tamed and lay to rest on a layered palate that has a lot to give. With a long and lingering finish, this wine will ask questions of why you haven’t purchased more.
The Winery Of Good Hope Mountainside Syrah
R145,00
A refreshing Syrah from the Cape shows rosemary and lavender perfume over crushed black pepper and bright plum fruit. Elegant and soft textured yet intense and rewarding. The wine is medium-bodied and lingers to a tapering finish. In an age where Syrah is known for making big, polished and powerful, often sweet-fruited wines, Radford Dale have chosen the path less travelled by showing a restrained and subtle expression of one of the Cape’s most exciting varieties.
