Case of Cederberg Ghost Corner Syrah

Tasting Notes

Showing-off a lighter, garnet-ruby colour, this Syrah reflects its cooler climate terroir both in colour and composition. Ripe plum and maraschino cherries on the nose with savoury black olive, herbal notes of rosemary and origanum, and a distinctive white pepper spicy edge. This Syrah – the name by which this wine identifies that it is more European in style –reflects the extreme site where this vineyard is situated at the southernmost tip of Africa. Medium-bodied, refreshing and beautifully elegant with refined tannins.

Food Pairing

Game fish cooked over hot coals. Slow-braised oxtail or venison cooked in red wine
and sherry. A charcuterie platter with salami, parma ham, tapenade and pork rillettes.
An Italian minestrone soup with grated parmesan cheese. Creamy risotto with wild
mushrooms and any aged, hard cheeses such as boerenkaas, mature gouda or two-yearold asiago.
