The Bellingham Bernard Series Basket Press Syrah is a powerful aromatic wine with an assertive character, but also shows a delicate and refined side. Freshly ground black and white pepper, a hint of lush dark chocolate and intense notes of bromide and mulberry with subtle undertones of floral allusions to violets and dried fynbos. A generously structured wine with a ripe tannin structure and a fantastically soft finish.

The grapes for this exquisite Shiraz were hand-picked and carefully sorted by hand upon arrival at the winery, berry by berry and bunch by bunch. The berries were then lightly crushed and fermented spontaneously in open 500 l French oak barrels before being gently pressed in the traditional basket press. The young wine was then put back into French barriques, where the malolactic fermentation was completed and the wine was allowed to mature for another 12 months.
