- Grape 100% Shiraz
- Country South Africa
- Region Stellenbosch

- A dark brooding wine on both the bouquet and palate. The depth of flavour is astounding, and the dark plums on the mid-palate give way to a long finish with the slightest hint of white pepper. With both savoury and fruit notes, this wine is a very versatile wine to enjoy with food, but be assured the mouth-filling, supple tannin structure will ensure that one will be well rewarded by cellaring this wine carefully for a few years before enjoying it!

Winery | Shiraz thrives in Mediterranean climates, and the fruit showed excellent concentration while retaining freshness and elegance. Grapes were hand-harvested early in the morning, de-stemmed, and sorted before being transferred to a stainless steel tank for fermentation. The perfect structure in the wine was achieved through open and closed pump-overs and careful monitoring to ensure the best balance possible. Maturation took place for 20 months in 70% new French oak barrels. |
