Product Description:
The de Trafford Blueprint Syrah is a gem in the wine world. Of medium depth and a crimson color, it flows into the glass and exudes powerful blueberry and plum aromas with undertones of herbaceous fynbos and subtle nuances of eucalyptus and pepper. On the palate, it is fresh and lively with blackberry and spice notes, crisp tannins, and a long, extremely satisfying finish.

Vinifikation Most of the grapes for our Blueprint Syrah come from a specific block in our neighbour's vineyard in Keermont. We have been using the fruit from this block since the inaugural 2011 vintage and continue to work closely with the Keermont team, who themselves produce some exquisite wines. A little of our Syrah 393 is usually added, as well as small quantities from a few other blocks in the Helderberg area. We do not use new oak for our Blueprint, as the tannins are naturally quite soft and we do not want to disturb the lovely, complex, subtle aromas of this wine. Blueprint refers to the outline of the winery on the label. A reference to David Trafford's previous career as an architect. The grapes were hand-picked, destemmed and lightly crushed (10% whole bunch) directly into open fermenters and spontaneously fermented with natural yeasts at a maximum of 30°C. The cap was punched down by hand 2-3 times a day for 16 days. The juice was pressed through the basket press directly into barrels. Malolactic fermentation took place in wood. The wine then matured in barrels for 20 months, with no new wood used. The wine was bottled by hand unfiltered and unfined.
