Tasting Note

A stunning organic Shiraz from a quality South African winery. Intense purple centre with burgundy red rim. On the nose there's violets and sweet prunes rounded off by fresh red spice and subtle aromas of Cape Fynbos and rosemary on the nose. On the palate the wine has elegant tannins and a dry finish with spicy and oaky notes.

About the Producer

Waverley Hills is best known for producing organic wines with a unique style, extremely smooth with soft ripe tannins and robust fynbos characteristic. The Estate is situated between Tulbagh and Ceres, close to Wolseley, South Africa, at the foothills of the breathtaking Witzenberg Mountain Range. The fertile, yellow clay terrain is impregnated with river stones, resulting in well-drained soils with excellent water holding capacity.

All the vineyards are irrigated with pure spring water and are located on a natural watershed area. The area is renowned for its diverse fynbos (indigenous flora), giving their wines a unique herbaceous characteristic.
