Origin

Meyer Highlands Syrah is produced in the highland regions known for their favorable climate and altitude, which contribute to the wine’s distinctive character and quality.

Variety

The wine is made exclusively from Syrah grapes, a variety renowned for producing rich, full-bodied red wines with deep color and complex aromas.

Production

The Syrah grapes are carefully harvested at optimal ripeness from high-altitude vineyards. The winemaking process includes controlled fermentation to preserve the grape’s natural flavors and aromas, followed by aging in oak barrels to enhance complexity and structure.

Tasting notes

  • Appearance: Deep ruby red color with purple hues.
  • Aroma: Intense notes of blackberry, black pepper, and subtle hints of violet and spice.
  • Palate: Full-bodied with rich fruit flavors, balanced acidity, and smooth tannins.
  • Finish: Long and persistent with a touch of smoky oak.

Food pairings

  • Grilled red meats such as lamb or beef.
  • Hearty stews and braised dishes.
  • Strong cheeses like aged cheddar or blue cheese.
  • Spiced dishes that complement the wine’s peppery notes.
