Elegant and juicy, teeming with concentrated soft red fruit and hints of vanilla, cedar and clove, this is a lively Merlot of distinctive character. Red cherry and redcurrant entice the nose, while the palate reveals a mouthful of sour cherry, coffee and spice.<br \/>Crafted for the long haul from vines on the cool Steenberg foothills, the 2017 vintage matured for 18 months in new and older French oak barrels. The result is a vibrant wine with the tannins and acidity perfectly intertwined.<\/p>\n<p>The gracious Steenberg Syrah 2017 is a medium-bodied, delicate black fruit and spice driven wine. Whiffs of dried prune, cloves, plums and cherry sherbet set the scene for a silky textured palate of soft, fine tannins and well integrated acidity. The wine owes its refined elegance to 15 months\u2019 maturation in new and older French oak barrels.<\/p>\n<p>The generosity and rounded texture of both these Steenberg reds makes them particularly food friendly: \u201cRich, smooth and heartwarming from our prized cool climate Constantia vineyards \u2013 nothing beats these wines when it comes to winter comfort food,\u201d says Steenberg Cellarmaster Elunda Basson.<\/p>\n<p>There has never been a better time to replenish your winter wine stocks.
