Synergy Cape Blend 2019

Wine Description
As part of our Reserve range, the Beyerskloof Synergy Cape Blend represents not only the Synergy between our most popular red grape varieties but a combination of classic European and New World wine styles. This Cape Blend shows the best characteristics of Pinotage and how they can be complemented by an array of varieties.

Vineyard
Soil: Klapmuts, Escourt, and Wasbank
Trellising: Pinotage bush vines and the rest of the cultivars planted on five wire hedges

Vintage Notes
Despite good rainfall, the region was still affected by the preceding drought and realized a much smaller crop for the second year in a row. The start of the harvest was more normal, and the early cultivars ripened well. The late cultivars ripened more uneven and later. The quality of the wines so far looks really good.

Winemaking
6-7 days on the skins at 26 degrees C in open fermenters. Punch downs were done every 2 hours during fermentation. After malolactic fermentation, the wine aged in 5% new and 95% second, third, and fourth fill French oak barrels for 12-14 months.

Tasting Notes
Colour: Intense dark red color with a lovely ruby red rim
Palate: An abundance of black fruit upon entry leads to a big, juicy middle with soft, well-rounded tannins. A classic Cape Blend with great balance and a pleasant finish.
Bouquet: Initial impressions of red fruit and cherries give way to hints of cedar/toasted oak aromas.
Pairings: Serve with matured steaks, game dishes, or oxtail
