Sutherland Vineyards Syrah

Tasting Notes: On the palate, juicy blackberries are complemented by black pepper and sage to create a long, savory, and spicy finish. Aged 18 months in French oak.

Situated on the southeastern side of the Simonsberg mountain, the Sutherland vineyards boast some of the highest elevations in Stellenbosch. The high altitude and rich soils are ideal for growing high quality grapes. This side project of Thelema wines follows the same principles as their main estate. Thelema believes grape quality is the single most important factor in winemaking. They focus on minimal intervention, allowing the wines to be a true expression of each vineyard.
