Ernst Gouws & Co Shiraz 2011

Name: Ernst Gouws & Co Shiraz 2011
Brand: Ernst Gouws & Co
SKU: 32387

A wine that has whiffs of spices and cherry pie leaping out of the glass before you've even had the chance to delight in the velvet elegance. The Shiraz has hints of white pepper and the juicy berries are a taste that embodies a luxurious richness.

It is best enjoyed with boiled meat, casseroles and uncompromisingly rich pasta dishes.
