Dewaldt Heyns Family Wines Saailand Shiraz 2022

100% Shiraz
Wine of Origin Swartland

From an ultra-low-yielding dry-land vineyard planted on south-facing, deep red clay-rich soils, this wine is crafted in open-top fermenters with 10% whole-bunch inclusion. It was matured for 20 months in French oak, enhancing its complexity and structure.

Tasting Notes: The bouquet reveals prominent dark fruit complemented by subtle red cherry and delicate violet nuances, underscored by hints of dried herbs. The palate is full-bodied with firm yet approachable tannins, leading to a long, elegant finish.

Ready for drinking by 2031.
