Tasting notes
The 2015 Syrah Stonessence is the most inky and brooding of these Syrah cuvées from Reynvaan, exhibiting a deep bouquet of elderberry, crème de cassis, tapenade and candied peel. On the palate, it's full-bodied, deep and layered, with a lavish attack, satiny tannins and a rich core of distinctly savory fruit. The finish is long and saline. Like all these wines, it's low in acidity but manages to find a mouthwatering freshness of its own.

The most expensive Syrah from Matt is the 2015 Syrah Stonessence and there’s a scant 325 cases made. Its deep ruby/plum color is followed by a salty, bloody Syrah that has loads of complexity, full-bodied richness, sweet tannin, and a big finish. Black raspberries, peppery herbs, dry aged beef, and hints of lavender all emerge from the glass and while it’s already singing, it’s going to evolve gracefully for 10-15 years.
