Description

Shiraz - Red South African WineIn South Africa's Western Cape, the best vineyards are often found on the slopes of the majestic mountains. And this is exactly where we found the grapes for this smooth red wine which is bursting with ripe black pepper aromas and rich berry fruit flavours. The supple, well rounded finish makes this a wine that will stand up to a variety of dishes from barbequed red meats, rich pasta sauces or spicy Indian meals.

Vinification Details
