Tasting Notes:
Stylishly crimson with youthful purple hues. On the nose an aromatic explosion of berry compote, a slight smokiness with underlying hints of cinnamon and cedar. The palate is confronted with an infusion of black cherries, bitter chocolate mousse, and subtle cinnamon notes. Mouth-filling, with a soft tannin structure and a well-balanced acidity, ensures mid-palate weight and a long, lingering spicy finish. Enjoy it now, or within the next 4 years.
Suggested Food Pairing:
Serve slightly chilled with Stilton and honey walnut salad, an aromatic full flavoured Indian curry or alternatively drink it on its own in front of a crackling fire.
Optimum serving temperature: 16-18°C
Winemaking Practice:
The grapes were handpicked from cooler vineyards in Stellenbosch. The grapes were destemmed and crushed after which the mash was inoculated with selected yeast culture and fermented to 8° balling on the skins. The mash was then pressed and the wine transferred to stainless steel tanks. The wine was cooled and sulphur was added to stop the fermentation. Before bottling the wine was fined and sterile filtered.
The Sweet Shiraz was wood-aged in the tank with French oak chips.
