Tasting note
This wine has an intense nose with dark berry fruits and hints of allspice, black cardamom, cloves and graphite. The compote of black plums, blackberries and currants on the nose follows a balanced mid-palate with lively notes of red plums, black cherries, green olives and violets at the entrance. The wine has a classic structure and a grippy texture with hints of espresso, tar and star anise that lingers on the finish.
Culinary recommendation
Hearty wine that also needs hearty dishes. South-French stews with lamb and beans are best.
Vinification
Syrah grows exceptionally well on the slate and decomposed dolomitic granite of the Swartland and has found its home in this warm, Mediterranean terroir on the foothills of the Kasteelberg. The grapes for patina come exclusively from our gold mine farm along the Riebeeks River. Although the drought persisted in the Western Cape, our fruits were harvested under ideal conditions, with small, concentrated berries providing textbook analysis. We opted for spontaneous whole grape vinification in concrete barrels to create structure and improve the classic aromas and complexity. The wine was aged in classic European barrels, 30% of which were aged in Stockinger Demi-Muids for 18 months.
