Deep ruby red in colour with violet inclusions in the glass, De Grendel Shiraz is a highly endowed wine with heavenly floral aromas and white pepper, paired with hints of fragrant mocha, lush black cherries and ripe plums, rounded off by a hint of lavender and saddle leather. On the palate, a prelude of black fruits seduces the senses, embedded in hearty, silky chocolaty tannins, which develop into a floral finish peppered with mulberry notes. This concentrated wine of exceptional elegance masterfully balances lush sweet black fruit with a beautifully structured tannin framework and fine spices.

The grapes for this first-class Shiraz were hand-picked at optimal ripeness and fermented in open steel tanks on arrival at the winery. After completion of alcoholic and malolactic fermentation in tanks, the wine was aged for 13 months in a combination of 10% new American and 10% new French oak and 80% in second and third barrels.
