Reyneke, Syrah Stellenbosch 2020

93 points Vinous
"The 2020 Syrah Biodynamic uses 30% whole bunch, natural ferment with two daily pumpovers to limit extraction. It has quite an intense dried mint bouquet, very floral and generous, well-defined and focused. The palate has a little sinew on the entry, fine grip and subtle herbal notes with blackcurrant and allspice on the slightly savory finish. This will need two to three years in bottle. Classy and in some ways, uncompromising."

"Biodynamic Syrah from Reyneke’s (Demeter-certified) vineyards in Stellenbosch. Earthy, herbal nose with hints of white pepper and lanolin. Medium-bodied, elegant and pure in the mouth. This is full of ripe, peppery red fruits, with plenty of freshness and some wild, roasted meat notes."
