🌟 A powerful Swartland Syrah—brooding, structured, and intensely expressive of iron-rich soils.

👁 In the Glass:
Deep garnet with a dark, concentrated core—bold and intense.

👃 On the Nose:
Complex and aromatic, with notes of blackberries, smoked meats, and dried herbs. Layers of spice—cloves, white pepper, and a hint of orange zest—add intrigue and lift.

👅 On the Palate:
Full-bodied and layered with velvety yet firm tannins. Dark fruit, savoury spice, and mineral tension unfold over a dense, muscular frame. The finish is fresh, long, and laced with earthy spice.

🍽 Food Pairing:
Ideal with slow-cooked lamb, venison, chargrilled steak, or spiced aubergine dishes. Also pairs beautifully with aged cheeses or mushroom-based cuisine.

⏳ Ageing Potential:
Impressive now with decanting, or cellar for 10–15 years to evolve further complexity and finesse.

✨ Why You’ll Love It:
Mullineux’s ‘Iron’ Syrah is a masterful expression of Swartland terroir—concentrated yet precise, with tension, depth, and unmistakable character. A benchmark South African red for the serious Syrah lover.
