The La Motte Pierneef Syrah Viognier impresses with its intense aroma of red fruits, mulberries, floral tones, anise and leather. Fine tannins caress the palate and are underpinned by spicy green pepper before the blend of Syrah (98%) and Viognier (2%) ends with a long-lasting finish. Thanks to its rich and fruity character, the red wine, which was matured in oak for fourteen months, is a wonderful food companion. The good structure and spicy notes of the Syrah and the floral nuances of the Viognier ensure that the La Motte Pierneef Syrah Viognier goes perfectly with dark meat and game, duck or an aromatic curry. But the red wine is also a treat on its own. By the way, the label features art works by the South African landscape painter Jakob Hendrik Pierneef.
