A bottle of 2018 Mullineux Swartland Syrah. And me. Please forgive the disgusting state of my fingers and nails - I’ve been wet-and-dry sanding aluminium and my rubber gloves had holes in them…
A glass of 2018 Mullineux Swartland Syrah with an iPad displaying tonight’s musical accompaniment - Charles Mingus’ live recording from Cornell University in 1964. One of the two best live albums ever issued.
#12bottlesofChristmas #6 is a #Swartland #syrah from #Mullineux. Very good, more than holds its own against similar entry-level offerings from e.g. Boekenhoutskloof. I’ve managed to sneak a look at Gaston’s list - he’s bottomloaded it like a #RyderCup captain. There are some heavy hitters to come!
