2022 and 2023 Cape Agulhas Syrah
Samesyn's Syrah grapes come from two blocks in the coastal region of Cape Agulhas. One is on a hilltop, facing northwest with 360-degree views of the farm; exposed to cooling ocean breezes, and the other faces northeast; sloping down towards the farm dam. Using 30% whole bunch, in 2022, and 50% in 2023, the grapes were handled gently throughout a 10-day fermentation and aged in neutral French oak to allow for the fullest expression of fruit and spice.
2023 Groenekloof Verdelho
The vineyard, located on Papkuilsfontein in Groenekloof, spans just 0.3 hectares, planted in 2001 with low-yielding vines in red iron granite soils, 150m above sea level, 12km from the ocean. Grapes are handpicked, cooled overnight, and whole-bunch pressed into stainless steel for fermentation. After fermentation, the wine is racked into a single old 300L French oak barrel, naturally undergoing malolactic fermentation. A small amount of sulfur was added post-fermentation. After 10 months in barrel, it was bottled on December 21, 2023.
