Exuding elegance and complexity, Mullineux Iron Swartland Syrah wine is a distinguished South African vintage. Abounding with dark, meaty fruit aromas and earthy undertones, it reveals a layered structure on the palate. Its rich, full-bodied character presents an enticing amalgamation of blackberry, plum and blackcurrant flavours, accentuated by hints of spice and mineral nuances. The texture is plush and polished, graced by rounded tannins. A distinct iron-like note enhances its savoury appeal, interweaving with a vibrant acidity to deliver a remarkably refined finish. This Syrah is perfect for those seeking a luxurious, long-living red wine experience.

Tasting Notes

The 'Iron' is the fullest bodied of Mullineux's Single Terroir Syrahs. On the nose, it is spicy and savoury, with dark berries. The palate has soft and velvety - yet firm - tannins with hints of orange peel, cloves and white pepper. The wine is brooding, dense and alluring with a fresh and long finish.
