The Super Single Vineyards Voorloper is an immensely elegant Syrah in classic European style. A high-dollar single-vineyard wine that is rich and layered as well as intense and brooding, yet avoids being heavy-handed. Sweet spice and graphite aromas on the nose, are followed on the palate by subtle earthy nuances of red cherry, plum as well as delicate notes of fragrant dry herbs. A finessed and elegant Bush Vine Syrah with stunning depth, length and wonderful concentration.

The "Voorloper" vineyard is one of the oldest Syrah vineyards in Stellenbosch. These old and tough bush vines of the SH-99 clone are certified as a Heritage Vineyard. The vines thrive on weathered white granite soils that produce a lean, old world style Syrah. The grapes were vinified whole bunch and aged in third-fill French oak barrels after fermentation was complete.
