Introduction:
Guardian Peak SMG is a bold and expressive blend of Syrah, Mourvèdre, and Grenache, crafted to showcase the vibrant fruit and spice characteristics of these varietals. With layers of red and dark berries, complemented by savory spice and structured tannins, this wine offers depth and complexity with every sip.
Tasting Notes:
- Nose: Aromas of cranberry, red licorice, and blackberry compote with hints of savory spice and flint.
- Palate: A rich blend of dark berry fruit, complemented by notes of spice and subtle earthy undertones.
- Finish: Persistent tannins with a zesty, well-balanced finish that enhances the fruit and spice complexity.
Winemaker's Notes:
Sourced from select vineyards in Stellenbosch, Breedekloof, and Piekenierskloof, each grape variety is vinified separately. Fermentation occurs in open-top tanks with daily pump-overs and punchdowns, followed by post-fermentation maceration for optimal tannin integration. Half of the Grenache undergoes whole bunch fermentation to enhance its vibrant red fruit character. The wine is aged for 18 months in 300L French oak barrels, adding complexity and refinement.
Food Pairing Suggestions:
Pairs well with grilled meats, spiced lamb dishes, roasted vegetables, and aged cheeses.
