Deep ruby with purple reflections—vibrant and refined.

👃 On the Nose:
Lifted and aromatic, with red berry fruit, violets, cracked black pepper, and smoky, savoury undertones.

Ripe and fleshy, showing juicy plum and red cherry layered with spice, fine tannins, and fresh acidity. A savoury edge and stony minerality carry through to a long, structured finish.

Waterkloof’s Syrah is a pure, elegant expression of coastal Stellenbosch—cool, structured, and alive with energy. A wine of natural balance and understated power, shaped by wind, sea, and soil.
