Light and elegant, but structured with fresh acidity. 40% Whole bunch ferment in small open vats. 60% destemmed and fermented in a 5000 ltr wooden fermenter with gentle pigeage (punch down of the cap) throughout. Pressed in a traditonal wooden basket press and racked into a 3000 litre oak vat for 9 months. hr The 2017 Syrah comes from Elgin and Greyton and includes 40% whole-bunch fruit aged in 500- and 700-liter barrels (30% new). It has a gorgeous bouquet of raspberry, pomegranate, burning embers and crushed violet aromas that seem to give the olfactory senses a big hug. The palate is quite brilliantly balanced, the fine tannins framing vivid brambly red and black fruit laced with cracked black pepper, dessicated orange peel, clove and an undercurrent of garrigue that becomes more prominent on the persistent finish. A fabulous Syrah from and winemaker Samantha O'Keefe. - Neal Martin Antonio Galloni's Vinous (November 2019), 95\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lismore Estate Vineyards","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44949155938351,"sku":"449578","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/4677\/5087\/files\/lismoresyrahlbl_483631a7-6d5c-4391-a7bf-4cc255cb61d0.jpg?v=1771490279","url":"https:\/\/timelesswinesdirect.com\/products\/lismore-syrah-2017","provider":"timelesswines.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
