Hartenberg Gravel Hill Syrah 2019 Japanese 5 years in 300-litre hogsheadsDESCRIPTION From a distinctive parcel on the lower end of the Hartenberg Estate, Gravel Hill has long been recognised for its singular terroir of koffieklip (iron rich gravel) soils, which impart a character and structure unlike any other Syrah in the Cape. Grapes from this site were vinified with meticulous care, the wine aged for 18 months in French oak barrels (50% new, 50% second fill). Bottled at 13. 5%. (Bottle size 750ml) TASTING NOTES Nose:
