Stellenzicht STELLENZICHT Syrah Stellenbosch RSA
Description: Known initially as Rustenberg and later Alphen, this vineyard at one time belonged to the Baimsfather-Cloete family who produced the famous Constantia wines. In 1981 the estate was acquired by Hans-Joachim Schreiber who renamed it Stellenzicht or in its literal translation 'View of Stellen' . Matured in oak this Syrah displays intense ruby rich hues with a distinct, youthful purple tinge and opaque centre. A rich complexity of mocha and dark chocolate aromas combines with the spicy sweetness of ripe plims and toasted oak; while cinnamon and cloves round off the sweetish fruit aromas. Full-bodied yet succulent with firm, soft tannins resulting in a perfectly balanced acidity this is a wine to enjoy through to the enjoyable finish. Situated midway between the Helderberg Mountain and False Bay, lies an exceptional tract of land that benefits from a terroir eminently suited to the cultivation of the highest quality wine grapes. This jewel in the crown of the magnificent Stellenbosh wine-growing area is known as the Golden Triangle. At its core lies Stellenzicht where this wonderful wine gets its grapes. The single vineyard, planted in 1989, is situated on the slopes facing west and north-west in soils originating from decomposed granite, at an altitude of 120 m above sea-level. This vineyard block is affectionately known as 'Plum Pudding Hill' as it consistently produces fruit of high quality and ripeness. The grapes were harvested by hand and after destalking and crushing, the mash was fermented in two separate batches in stainless steel tanks at 28°C, with differing selected pure yeast cultures . The juice was removed from the skins after five days. Once malolactic fermentation was completed the wine was left to mature in a combination of French , American and Hungarian oak for a period of 19 months before bottling. (6 x 75 cl)
