Tasting profile (AI-generated)
Structure: medium-bodied, medium tannin, high acidity, dry
Kershaw's Elgin Syrah reflects the cool-climate character of this South African appellation, with a savoury, peppery edge and fresh, taut acidity rather than the riper, jammier style found in warmer regions. Expect elegant red and dark fruit, floral violet notes, and fine-grained tannins with a distinctly Northern Rhone-inspired sensibility. It's a food-friendly, structured red suited to those who enjoy restraint and savoury complexity over power.
Serving: Serve at 15–17 °C.
