Mullineux Schist Syrah 2018 - South Africa

The 2018 Syrah Schist was matured identically to the Granite Syrah. It is more open on the nose, with more red fruit than the 2018 Granite, raspberry and wild strawberry commingling with briar, white pepper, wild fennel and light Provençal herb aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins, cohesive and finely chiselled, and the finish shows more precision and nuance than the Granite. Chris and Andrea Mullineux told me that this was their favourite Syrah in 2018. Mine too.Drink 2024 - 2042- 94 points, Vinous.com
