Sophie Schaal Born of Fire Syrah

Description

The Sophie Schaal “Born of Fire” Syrah is a highly rated, organically certified 100% Syrah crafted by French winemaker Sophie Schaal in the Swartland and Coastal regions of South Africa. Its name pays tribute to the local Cape Fynbos flora, which relies on natural wildfires to regenerate and blossom. The wine features a bold, expressive profile defined by intense aromas of wood smoke, cracked black pepper, liquorice, and dark fruits like black cherry and plum. Balanced by fine power, fresh acidity, and a persistent finish, the grapes thrive in clay and shale soils less than 40 kilometers from the ocean to retain vital freshness.
