Tasting note
Spicy, powerful South African Shiraz that pours over the tongue like a cascade of ripe fruit, rising to the nostrils in waves of blackberries, currants and liquorice.
Viticulture
Sourced exclusively from Thelema Estates' vineyards, which were planted in 1997 in decomposed granite soils at a density of 1970 vines per ha. The vines are spur pruned to 2 buds every 12cms with a vertical hedge trellis and yield 6 t/ha, irrigation is with a supplementary drip system.
Food Match
This full bodied Shiraz is perfect to partner grilled, roasted, pan fried or char-grilled red meat such as beef or lamb. Perfect with a rare pan fried ostrich steak or haunch of venison.
