2020 Beausol Syrah

The first striking feature of this 2020 Beausol Syrah is the bright ruby hues.

Hot and dry summers ensure perfect maturity, while Black Mountain humidity ensures that the cooling sea breezes infuse each grape with a fruity aroma.

Low yields mean that these Syrah grapes are incredibly concentrated with juicy sweetness and layered acidity.
