Crunchy, energetic South African natty Syrah of rare elegance. Made in a hands-off style, with 100% whole bunch and the most minimal additions, this is an aromatic, crunchy red whose pale facade disguises a juicy depth and a lingering, intense finish. A beautiful seamless red, this is for lovers of elegance and whimsy in their fine wines.

Craig and Carla Hawkins launched Testalonga in the north of Swartland, South Africa in 2008. They are part of a revolutionary ground swell taking place in South African wine, where traditions are being challenged and brave new territory is being explored. The painfully small amount of wine that this duo produces gets snapped up in short order the world over. Known for their striking intensity and nervy energy, Craig and Carla's wines are on the cutting edge of the natural wine movement in their country.
