The Shiraz Vineyard
Planted in 2001 this single site Shiraz lies at 260 meter above sea level on the slopes of the Simonsberg, Stellenbosch, South Africa. The vineyard is South-west facing and the red soil comprises decomposed granites blended with Table Mountain sandstone.
Picked on the 9th of March the grapes showed a combination of rich ripe berries and components of black pepper spice and very juicy ripe tannin.
The aim was capturing the essence of Stellenbosch Shiraz with a combination of berry fruit and vibrant spice.
Winemaking and Maturation
67% of the grapes were destemmed on top of 33% of the whole bunch Shiraz. Fermented in open top tank and punched down 3 times per day during fermentation. After fermentation the wine went through Malolactic fermentation in used 300 litre barrels. The wine was racked twice during maturation and was bottled on 20 November 2023.
