Gabriëlskloof is a beautiful wine estate located in the Overberg region east of Cape Town. It was purchased in 2001 by Bernhard Heyns, who had been on the lookout for the ideal place to plant vines. After planting, his first vintage was in 2009. Peter-Allan Finlayson, Bernhard’s son-in-law, took over as winemaker from the 2015 vintage. The Gabriëlskloof estate is situated in the Bot River ward, where prevailing southerly winds from the nearby Atlantic Ocean create a cool climate. The fruit for this wine is sourced from the Sandstone vineyard, named due to the soils consisting of mostly broken Sandstone rock. The site's unique soil and cool climate result in an elegant and perfumed style of Syrah.
Tasting note: An elegant, cool climate Syrah with savoury notes of fynbos and tomato leaf complemented by lifted aromas of raspberry, violet and crushed pepper. There is a wonderful density on the palate, coupled with fine grained tannins and vivid acidity.
