2013 Richard Kershaw Clonal Selection Syrah, Elgin

2013 Richard Kershaw Clonal Selection Syrah, Elgin
Ready, but will improve,
Richard has stepped up his game with his 2013 Syrah. While the 2012 was very good, the 2013 is truly impressive. The nose is awash with blueberry, damson and white pepper. The palate is medium-bodied, svelte and full of Old World sensibility with a moreish, savoury, tannin edge and much more structure than the previous vintage. The acidity is lifted and, along with a graphite note and mineral edge, gives this Syrah a refinement one often finds in the wines of the Northern Rhône. Excellent. Drink 2017-2022.
