mehrere Informationen

With an intense black and red colour in the glass, the Zandvliet Hill of Enon Shiraz opens a stunningly complex bouquet of blueberry, liquorice and dark chocolate. These delicious flavours also run seamlessly through to the full palate, which is enhanced by subtle wood notes and nuances of plum, cigar box and chocolate, ending in a velvety finish. The grapes for the Hill of Enon Shiraz come from a unique terroir, which produces remarkably small berries that reach full maturity ten days earlier than Shiraz grapes from neighbouring vineyards. These small berries have incredibly intense and complex aromas and were harvested separately to produce this remarkable Shiraz! This text has been automatically translated.

Treatment in the cellar

The grapes for this first-class Shiraz were crushed and first subjected to a three-day cold swelling phase at a controlled 10°C before fermentation began at a controlled 25 - 30°C. The malolactic fermentation took place at 18°C. Once fermentation was completed, the wine matured for 30 months in American Mendocino oak barrels, 30% of which were new wood.
