SYRAH VS SHIRAZ: 30 GREAT BUYS FROM SOUTH AFRICA

Jordan, The Prospector Syrah, Stellenbosch 2017
93 Points

"Gentle and pure with a smoothly polished texture, this is a measured, precise style of Syrah. Plenty of black fruits, and a lingering wisp of smoke in the background. Very assured winemaking, aged for 16 months in barrel, 85% French and 15% American oak. Great Value." - View our Tasting Note here

 

AUSTRIAN DRY RIESLING

Allram, Ried Heiligenstein Reserve 2017
93 Points

"Heiligenstein is a large and varied site known for it's primary rock solid, and it is far from uniform, which explains why so many Rieslings are produced here. Delectable pear and apricot aromas, a limpid attack, tangy acidity. Admirable clarity of fruit and precision, but not overtly fruit-driven. Concentrated, discreetly powerful, it exhibits ample extract on the finish, which is balanced, stony and long. A classic Riesling" - View our Tasting Note here
