Go Dark this winter with first vintage of Paserene’s broody Syrah
Spirit of free creativity shines in latest offering from Franschhoek winery
The boutique Franschhoek winery Pasereneโs first release of Dark โ a full-bodied and broody 2018 Syrah in its Elements range โ is a fine ambassador of the winemakerโs pursuit for appealing and authentic expression. Showing notes of spicy treacle, cherries, and antique leather, this Syrah was crafted from a combination of grapes grown in clay soils in Tulbagh, and sand in Franschhoek. These two renowned wine regions, together with vineyards in Elgin, are the palette from which third-generation winemaker and Paserene co-owner Martin Smith draws for his creations.
