The Foundry Syrah
£21.00
Established in 2000, The Foundry is the brainchild of Meerlust cellar-master, Chris Williams, in partnership with his long-term buddy, James Reid. Owning no vineyards, The Foundry works closely with a handful of growers across the Cape to secure grapes from sites which are best suited to each of the varieties Chris works with.
Since the 2006 vintage the fruit source for the Syrah has been a single estate on the Helderberg.
This wine delivers rich, dark fruit in spades, having a savoury side which brings out the Northern Rhone and makes it superbly food-friendly. A great price for a wine of such quality.
A great wine for stews and roasts and perfect with strong hard cheeses (a good Cheddar red – Montgomery!)

Perfect for BBQ's and a really versatile wine to have on hand, complementing pizza, meaty pasta, pork chops...
