More About Sijnn Wines Low Profile Red 2020

From the windswept vineyards of Malgas, Sijnn Wines’ Low Profile Red 2020 is a beautifully expressive blend that combines Rhône and Portuguese varieties into something distinctly South African.

Named after the hundreds of soil profile pits dug to understand the estate’s rocky terrain, “Low Profile” may be the winery’s more approachable cuvée, but there’s nothing simple about it. Aromas of wild berries, black cherry, liquorice, tobacco, and dried herbs unfold alongside subtle earthy and mineral notes.

The palate is juicy and energetic, balancing ripe dark fruit with savoury spice, smoky undertones, and fine-grained tannins. There’s a lovely freshness running through the wine, giving lift and drinkability despite its depth and texture. A long, dry finish leaves lingering notes of mulberry, herbs, and cracked pepper.

A superb food wine for grilled lamb, smoky vegetable dishes, or a proper braai. Characterful, layered, and quietly sophisticated, this is modern South African winemaking at its most compelling.

Style: Winery

Some vineyards look difficult. Sijnn looks actively unreasonable.

Located in Malgas near the Breede River, the project was founded by South African winemaker David Trafford after discovering a landscape covered in ancient river stones that reminded him of parts of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Most people would probably have chosen somewhere easier.

The vineyards sit in one of South Africa’s most remote wine regions, planted largely with Rhône and Mediterranean varieties including Syrah, Mourvèdre, Touriga Nacional and Chenin Blanc. The rocky soils and warm climate produce wines with concentration, but the maritime influence helps preserve freshness.

The reds often show dark berry fruit, herbs, spice and a distinctive stony character that seems to run through the entire range. The white blend combines texture and richness with bright acidity, developing complexity beautifully over time.

What makes Sijnn particularly compelling is that the wines feel completely tied to their landscape. They do not really resemble anything else from South Africa, which is usually a very good sign.
