Elegant, silky, refined.
While Rust Wine Co. is located on Golden Mile Drive, and is one of the handful of wineries allowed to use the designation Golden Mile sub-GI, they make three Syrahs, all unique and each colour coded to site along with a matching label and wax dip.
This version comes from the volcanic ash and fine granitic sand of the Black Sage Bench outside of Oliver, the vines were planted on the Ferreira estate in 2001 at 333 MASL.
Of the three, this is the elegant one.
Immediately you pick up on its delicacy and refinement. A mix of fresh cherry, currents and blackberry aromas are woven with fine spice and dried roses. It has levity and jubilant fruit flavours that are layered with earth. Silky and seductive, this is my favourite, totally my cuppa.
Pairs great with Gone Crackers Olive Oil & Cracked Pepper
Rich Meats , Good First Impressions, Cellar Keepers, GONE CRACKERS, Cheese Fondue
