Picture of ANTHONIJ RUPERT SYRAH 2018
Peppery spice, blue and black fruit with additional allure of a brush of dried herb and fynbos on the nose. Corduroy softness and mouthfeel is apparent on entry. That texture grows, as does the fruit intensity, into a fantail of flavour, ripe plum, blueberry and a hint of licorice and herbs. Buttressing that ripeness is the structure lent by well integrated oak and a sinewy muscularity and leashed power. Good frame and harmony – nothing is dominant. Long, rich tail with spice and fynbos on the end.

Appealing invitation of creamy orange and marmalade with a baked, brûlée note. That same torched or scorched sugar/caramel element is apparent on the palate, beautifully delivering on the promise of the nose – along with the vivid citrus and cream too.

The seamless and harmonious oak serves to support the fruit, gently cradling rather than dominating it. Poised, elegant and statuesque with a wonderfully long finish, this is a credit to the winemaker’s craft. It will cellar well and reward patience.
