Note di degustazione
The 2013 Iron Syrah has a roundness and softness on the nose that almost belies its complexity - red berry fruit, red peppercorns, rooibos and undergrowth scents that are very well defined. The palate is medium-bodied with ripe tannin, wonderfully savory and quite gamey, and beautifully balanced with impressive volume and sustain on the finish that you would have difficult distinguishing from a top Côte-Rôtie. This is an excellent Syrah, my only reservation being that there is a touch of heat on the finish.

Just north of Malmesbury on red soils. Bought-in fruit from a vineyard that sells to Eben Sadie inter alia. Big and sweet and round. Racy and complete. Real structure. (JR)
