Very lucky blend of two of our favourite grapes of all time. A dash of cabernet sauvignon, adding some dark intensity to the juicy pepperiness of the syrah. Will still evolve in the next five years.

GRAPES

80% syrah + 20% cabernet sauvignon grown by Daan and Elvire Dijkman in Carpentras (Provence), France.

TASTING NOTES

Syrah grapes is the most planted red grape, after cabernet sauvignon (which is also in this blend). It’s quite dark of colour and usually grows in more Northern areas of France, such as La Côte Rôtie.

Cabernet Sauvignon - makes a full-bodied red wine with flavours of dark fruits. It often has savoury tastes from black peppers to bell pepper.

Carpentras lies right on the highest mountain of Provence. Perhaps Provence rings a bell because this is actually one of the most familiar wine regions in the south. This area has a tremendous history, starting with the Romans, who called it their ‘provencia nostra’ as this area was their first province outside of Italy. Provence is actually known for its rose. However, we couldn’t resist making this dark and intense red wine. Plus, we wouldn’t be Chateau Amsterdam if we didn’t do things differently. Our partner farmers Daan and Elvire van Dijkman who provided the grapes for this one just happen to be Dutch. It was meant to be!

Fermentation on stainless steel, ageing on french oak barrels for 12 months.

This wine pairs perfectly with foods like beef, mushrooms, portobello, stamppot with gravy, Indonesian food (gado gado), and hummus.
