The Glass Collection Syrah has a wonderful dark and rich colour with a slight purple hue to the edge. The aromatics of the wine are intense with floral tones such as Yasmin and violet coming through with white pepper spice and dark berry core. The palate is well balanced and textured with soft round tannins and a pure fruit core shining through. Post 2009 harvest temperature to January were higher. Cool Winter ensured a good bud burst, it was 9 days early. Cool conditions during berry set lead to loose bunches. Berry size was smaller than other years. December was characterized by a warm and dry climate. Good analysis was achieved, especially PH. Good wine quality.
