Mullineux Schist Syrah 2020 is a medium-to-full-bodied, single-vineyard Syrah red wine produced in the Swartland region of South Africa. Mullineux Wines is one of the stand-out producers in South Africa`s Swartland region. The Schist Syrah comes from vines planted in the stony shale and schist soils of the Mullineux`s Roundstone farm on the Kasteelberg in Swartland. Schist is the most structured of the Mullineux Syrahs, typically expressing notes of black pepper, black fruit and spices on the nose, and a meaty, savoury palate, with fine-grained tannins. The 2020 wine was fermented with whole bunches, and matured for 12 months in 500-litre French oak barrels (25% new), followed by nine months in second-fill foudres.

The 2020 Syrah Schist, that normally has small berries with thicker skins, has an upfront nose with ebullient red and blackberry fruit, a little riper and more generous than the Granite. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, perhaps more elegant than the Granite Syrah, supremely well focused with a peppery finish that is complex and engaging. Even more black pepper on the aftertaste, this has outstanding persistence. Bon vin!
