Andreas6x Syrah 2020

About

Nestling in the Bovlei Valley, just outside Wellington, the Andreas Wine Estate is a hidden gem comprising 4.5 hectares of vineyards, an elegant eighteenth-century house and lush gardens. Andreas was one of the first Huguenot settlements in the valley and the estate resonates with historical charm and elegance from this era. Long, hot summer days, cooled by late afternoon breezes, chilly, wet winters and decomposed granite and shale combined to provide the perfect terroir for Andreas’ award-winning Syrah.
