Tasting Note

The warm ripening conditions of the 2016 bring out the riper side of this grape variety. Savoury notes are supported by liquorice and black pepper, as well as ripe plums and a hint of smoke. The wine shows beautiful intensity on the palate. The natural acidity adds freshness to the wine, and tannins are soft and approachable.

Product Notes

Groot Constantia's Shiraz Wine features a rich, full-bodied profile embodying the sumptuous quality of South African wines. Deep ruby in colour, it enthuses the palate with exquisite notes of ripe black fruit, pepper, and subtle vanilla undertones from oak maturation. The sinuous balance of tannins and acidity melds seamlessly with the potent flavours, finishing in an elegant prolonged intensity. Radiating an appealing freshness, each sip promises a luxuriant experience. Suitable for aging, Groot Constantia's Shiraz is a fine expression of New World wine showcasing South Africa's distinguished viticulture traditions. Enjoy it with boldly-flavoured dishes for a harmonious pairing.
