Profile

Description

Named after the mythical creature that graces owner Rollo Gabb's family crest, only seven barrels were made of this dense, silky-smooth, Syrah from one of Stellenbosch's top estates.

Pairing

Partial carbonic maceration adds lift to this powerful red, making it a perfect match for grilled lamb or seared steak with a pan jus.

Aromas and Flavours

Strawberry

A sweet, almost caramel-like aroma reminiscent of your favourite juicy, red berry.

Plum

Sweet, fruity and sensual, similar stone fruit aromas to a peach, but without the 'fuzziness'.

Black currant

Sometimes also referred to as 'cassis', this black fruit tasting note is common in red wines.

Herbs

Your windowsill herb garden gives off a lovely herbal smell every time you walk by.

Pepper

A whiff of a freshly used pepper grinder - spicy and fresh, without the itchy nose.
