In the glass, the Zandvliet Kalkveld Shiraz presents itself as a dark ruby red and pampers the nose with deliciously complex aromas of ripe plums and prunes, fragrant violets and fine spices. These delicious aromas also unfold on the full-bodied palate, combined with subtle wood tones and remarkable balance. The finish is smooth and supple and lingers long after the last sip.

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. Malolactic fermentation took place at 18°C. Once fermentation was complete, the wine was aged for 24 months in new French oak barrels.
