Blaauwklippen Vineyard Selection Shiraz 2007

This perfectly balanced wine delivers gorgeous tobacco, leather, blackcurrant and plum flavours against a slightly peppery and spicy backdrop. It is a well structured and full bodied superior wine with a lingering aftertaste of sweet tobacco. This wine reflects the beautiful complexity of the finest red wine terroir, Stellenbosch. The intensity of these noble varieties has been further enhanced by the slower fermentation caused by natural yeast found in the vineyards.

Goes well with meat dishes or strong flavoured game. Pairs very well with pasta. Serve at 17°C.
