Bellingham The Bernard Series Basket Press Syrah

A powerful aromatic wine that is assertive and yet delicate and refined with ample cracked black and white pepper spice, hints of rich dark chocolate against a substantial blackberry and mulberry fruit foundation tinged with subtle floral suggestions of violets and dried indigenous fynbos.

Generously structured with astute ripe tannic texture promising further integration and secondary complexity on cellar maturation of 6 to 8 years.

This wine is particularly recommended with full-flavoured dishes like roast venison, aged fillet and rump steaks, spicy sausages or duck confit.
