The Wolftrap 2010 Syrah Mourvedre Viognier

 

A really cheap wine and delicious to drink.  This wine went great with grilled steak.  A dark red, powerful wine.  The blackberry taste is really quite simple but absolutely wonderful to drink.   I had read that Boekenhoutskloof is a syrah specialist and some of the best Syrah’s come out of South Africa.  Worthy to try again.

 

Winemakers Note

Both the Syrah and Mourvedre component come from a Malmesbury vineyard with the Viognier sourced on Boekenhoutskloof. The reds were fermented using selected Rhone strain yeasts. French oak matured with Viognier blended prior to bottling.  Full of black fruits, red and black berries with some violet flavours. Smooth on the palate with some fresh aromas of wild strawberries and cherries .
