The Bellevue Shiraz is a Shiraz in typical modern style. It ensnares the nose with complex aromas of mocha, woody smoke and ripe mulberries, followed by strong and complex nuances of ripe berry fruit and smoked meat on the palate. The pleasantly soft and long-lasting finish rounds off the pleasure in a delicious way.

The grapes for this modern Shiraz were harvested at optimal maturity and lightly crushed on arrival at the winery. The resulting juice rested for 6 hours with contact on the skin before being mixed with selected yeasts to start the fermentation process. The four-day fermentation took place at a controlled temperature of 26-28°C, with the wine being pumped over three times a day. Once the alcoholic fermentation was complete, the malolactic fermentation was completed in the tank. The wine then matured in selected French and American oak barrels.
