Syrah lovers could spend a long time discussing the relative merits of Alex Starey's single parcel Syrahs. I have a very slight preference for Topside in 2018, partly because its cooler terroir on Stellenbosch Mountain was well suited to the drought conditions of the vintage. Restrained, focused and built to age in bottle, it has sage and oregano perfume, savoury tannins, refreshing acidity and minerality and flavours of plum, raspberry, red cherry and tobacco leaf.

The 2018 Syrah Single Vineyard Series Topside comes from more shale soils than the Steepside, with a slightly cooler microclimate. This makes a tangible difference on the nose, which has more delineation and mineralité, a little more floral in style. The palate is very well-balanced with a wonderful spice, and an unerring sense of symmetry with a precise and beautifully-controlled finish. Excellent.
