Description

Awards: Veritas Gold / Top12 Shiraz

A complex combination of white pepper, cigar box, mint and a concentration of dark fruit, supported by subtle spicy undertones.

The complexity on the nose flows over to the palate. The wine is big and round on entry with silky smooth tannins that show well even though the wine is still young. Nice fruit on the back palate combined with a well-balanced acidity is responsible for a lingering finish and rounds off a perfectly balanced wine.

Pair with kudu fillet with couscous and a red wine reduction.

Best served at 16-18 Deg.

Enjoy now through to 2028.

Additional Info: 

Shiraz grows like it wants to fly away. And the cautious farmer will mutter that nothing good will come from such a wild thing. But find the soil and climate to balance this effervescent nature, and you have the chance of making something beautiful.

With grapes hand-picked in the quiet, cool early morning – Lovingly tendered fermentation takes place in open top fermenters, using ancient wine crafting methods. This ensures delicious, age-worthy wine with a silky structure and a brooding, mysterious nature, capable of surprising you with its power and energy – a real Dark Horse!

The Dark Horse is our touchstone, our mantra, our moving target, our other name, our dreams reflected.
