The Earth Beneath Our Feet Syrah 2019 comes exclusively from Franschhoek. Similar oak and ageing regime to the Grenache but a little more volume being produced, but not that much really. Only 900 bottles made!

A lovely garnet hue. Again, needs an hour in a decanter to really show itself. Super meaty on the nose, smoky, gamey, cooked meat. Olive and spice then, after a minute or two, dried fruits of red berries and redcurrants come through, plus a hint of cherry. Spicy and seriously delicious, big and bold but not heavy, still elegant to a degree with good restraint. For under £20 a bottle is just stellar value for money.

Just a fantastic line-up from this producer!
