2022 Are We There Yet?, Savage Wines

This comes from Malgas, and a blend of Touriga Nacional, Cinsault, and Syrah. There is more Syrah than usual, but this is a generous and impressively structured red, with notes of violet, fynbos, and black olive tapenade.

Tasting notes

Are We There Yet? is named after the time it takes to drive from Duncan Savage's winery in urban Cape Town to Sijnn's vineyards in Malghas. Made with an unusual combination of Syrah and 33% Touriga Nacional, it's enticingly floral and Mediterranean, with lavender and oregano aromas, savoury tannins, plum and blueberry fruit and sinewy tannins. 2024-30
