mehrere Informationen

The Rijks Reserve Shiraz has a complex nose with aromas of dark fruit and black berries and finely interwoven and multi-layered notes of black and white pepper, with a lively play of acidity that remains noticeable in the complex, multi-layered and rich palate, finely rounded off by velvety tannins. Fine notes of wood and soft tannins give the wine excellent depth and make it a harmonious and complex palate. This text has been automatically translated.

Treatment in the cellar

For 48 hours, the grapes were soaked in cold water to extract the colour and fruit. The malolactic fermentation took place in wooden barrels. The wine then matured for 22 months in French 300-litre wooden barrels, of which 40% was first-stock and 60% second-stock.
