    *6R* 2019 Stark-Condé Syrah (Stellenbosch, SA)

    6R

    Warmer growing regions, fully ripened grapes, extended barrel-aging add to the wine’s body

    *6R* 2019 Stark-Condé Syrah (Stellenbosch, SA)

    A deliciously deep purple-tinged color with concentrated dark fruit aromas with licorice, violet, and white pepper notes. The mouthfeel is rich and broad with layers of fruit and soft tannins. This wine totally over-delivers.

    About The Varietal

    Syrah

    Shiraz and Syrah are interchangeable names for the same dark-skinned grape variety when viewed in terms of DNA. Originating in the Rhône Valley, this grape dominates plantings in the northern section of the valley. The name Shiraz is commonly used in Australia and certain regions of the New World, particularly those with warmer climates. The stylistic differences between Shiraz and Syrah wines are often distinct, contributing to the enduring dual identities of this grape variety.

    About The Producer

    Stark Conde

    Self-taught winemaster Jose Conde's first attempt was in 2000 when experimenting with his favorite grape, Cabernet Sauvignon. While only 2,400 bottles, his first vintage was named one of the Top 20 Wines of the Year by UK wine writer Oz Clarke. Now working with black winemaker Rüdger Van Wyk., Stark Conde's wines are bottles we look forward tp years after years.
