Waterkloof - Circumstance Syrah 2019
Unravel the Circumstances
Hailing from the Stellenbosch region of South Africa, this wine embodies the unique terroir of its vineyard, characterized by cool ocean breezes and granite soils.
Waterkloof Circumstance Syrah stands out within its category for its exceptional balance of fruit, spice, and savory notes, showcasing the varietal's potential in the region.
It distinguishes itself with its purity of fruit, restrained oak influence, and seamless integration of tannins. Tasting notes include aromas of blackberry, violet, and cracked pepper, leading to a palate of dark fruit, earthy undertones, and a lingering finish.
The Syrah grapes undergo spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts, followed by aging in a combination of large French oak barrels and concrete eggs. This unique approach allows the wine to develop complexity and texture while maintaining freshness and vibrancy.
Located in the heart of the Western Cape's wine country, Waterkloof Estate overlooks False Bay and benefits from its maritime climate. With a history dating back to the 17th century, the estate has undergone a revitalization in recent years under the ownership of Paul Boutinot. Producing around 150,000 bottles annually, Waterkloof is renowned for its commitment to biodynamic viticulture and minimal intervention winemaking.
The 2019 vintage has received praise from critics, earning scores of 90+ points from Wine Spectator and Wine Enthusiast.
This Syrah pairs beautifully with hearty dishes such as grilled lamb chops, braised beef short ribs, or roasted eggplant with Mediterranean spices.
