Reyneke Reserve Red
Product Description
The Syrah vineyard is harvested twice: the first picking earlier with less potential alcohol and the second harvest being riper adding a more diverse and complex aromatic profile. The wine is fermented naturally in concrete fermenters and aged for 22 month in French oak barrels. The first picking of Syrah in 600l vats, whereas the riper picking in new fill 225l barrels. The Cabernent Sauvignon also spends a full 22 month in new French oak barrels before the assemblage is completed and the wine is bottled without any finings or filtration.
