Avis des critiques de vin
“Syrah is in my blood," says Jean Smit, and it shows. This is one of a trio of brilliant examples of the variety, combining grapes from the Polkadraai Hills with 20% from Bottelary. Bloody, intense, brooding and almost indecently aromatic, it's a tribute to the great reds of the northern Rhône, with plenty of granitic grip, tapenade, liquorice and blackberry flavours and the structure and focus to age beautifully in bottle. 2027-40

The 2022 Syrah from Karabib is 75% whole clusters matured for 11 months in 2,000-liter Austrian oak. This elegant nose of incense and pressed violets infuses the vivacious melange of black and blue fruit. The medium-bodied palate has fine structure, slightly chalky in texture, with real backbone and density, yet the elegance floods through on the black pepper and clove-infused finish. Very persistent in the mouth. Tuck bottles away for several years as this is a serious Syrah sculpted by its cooler microclimate.
