With a tilt of the glass, the Val du Charron Reserve Shiraz releases powerful aromas of black pepper, fine herbs and ripe berry fruit. On the palate, the wine has an exceptionally full mouthfeel with soft tannins and lush nuances of dark fruit. In the finish long lasting and smooth, this delicious drop ends with a rounded finish!

The grapes for the Val du Charron Shiraz were cooled down for 24 hours and then selected bunch by bunch and berry by berry with great care, destemmed and lightly crushed. In the steel tank the grapes were provided with selected Rhône yeast cultures to start the desired fermentation process. Once fermentation was complete, a two-week contact on the skin was allowed before pressing, and only the free-flowing juice was filled 50% into French oak barrels and 50% into flex tanks for the rest of the production process, where malolactic fermentation was completed after three months. The wine then matured in oak for 15 months and was slightly refined before bottling.
