2020 Are We There Yet?, Savage Wines
Dry | Red | Still | 13.5%
Arguably the least imaginative of Duncan’s wine names, Are we there yet? Comes from Malgas, way distant from the Cape’s heartlands, and from the Sijnn vineyards. The first time Duncan visited David Trafford’s project out here, he was blown away. He asked if he could buy a few grapes, and this is the result: a blend of 50% Syrah and 50% Touriga Nacional from 14 year old bushvines, that reflects the wildness of the place. The 2020 is gorgeous: fynbos, tapenade and dark berries, and real stony minerality. Don’t miss this.
