About the winemaker
After wandering the world for seven years, working in the most iconic wine regions from Burgundy to the Loire, I decided it was time to go home. I discovered the incredible cool-climate vineyards of the South African coast, and there everything fell into place.

Walker bay, South africa
Although Syrah officially originates from the French Rhône, the grape found its way to South Africa early on, where it was planted since the 19th century and later grew into one of the country's most important red varieties. In Walker Bay, one of South Africa's coolest wine regions, Syrah develops a character all its own. The constant sea breeze and slow ripening process result in refined, peppery wines with fresh acidity and pure fruit expression. Here, Syrah shows just how elegant and aromatic it can be: less of a powerhouse, but with more finesse.
