This 22 hectare winery can be found between the Franschhoek and Stony Brook rivers and features lovely fertile, dark loam soils, a Mediterranean climate and a state-of-the-art winery.

Holden Manz Syrah 2020
14.5% abv
Vol- 75cl
An elegant wine demonstrating perfect balance between oak and our finest quality Syrah grapes. Plenty of dark fruit with good minerality and long dry finish. Violet flavours linger on the palate
Hand selected bunches of the most concentrated ripe Syrah were cold macerated over an extended period of time prior to barrel fermentation. 30% whole bunch fermented using wild yeast in 500L French oak barrels. Maturation continued for 18 months in the same barrels with 70% in second and third fill French oak barrels (225L).
Decant before serving. Good ageing potential.
