Petite Sirah (also known as Durif) is a natural crossing of Syrah and Peloursin, discovered by François Durif in the south of France in 1880. Its intense colour and good tannin structure makes it an excellent blending partner. It thrives in warm climates, both here in Paarl and in the Swartland. The Souzao is a traditional Port-style variety which is a fitting contributor to the blend.
