The Wine The Wine
South Africa
Region:Swartland
Big, bold and brimming with character, this Swartland Shiraz layers spicy red berries with dense blackcurrant compote, all smoothed by sweet vanilla oak. Full-bodied and powerful, yet balanced and complex, it's a Cape red with real presence. Decant before serving to let all that richness and depth unfurl in the glass.

Alecia Boshoff
Alecia started her career as assistant winemaker after completing her BSc (Agric) Viticulture and Oenology degree at the University of Stellenbosch in 2002. She gained valuable international winemaking skills during harvests in Australia, France and the USA, before returning to South Africa. Her passion for Swartland (she is a born-and-bred Swartlander) can be seen in her dedication to the terroir and wines from this region.
"On the blending table at the winery, we to set out to craft a red that was full bodied and rich, always with the aim to keep the varietal black fruit and spice of Shiraz at the core. We used some lovely barrel-aged components to add some depth and round out the finish and the result is a classy expression of our Swartland vineyards." - Alecia Boshoff, Winemaker.
