Tasting profile (AI-generated)
Structure: medium-bodied, medium tannin, medium acidity, dry
A approachable Western Cape Shiraz with the classic Co-fermented Viognier lift — expect violet and white peach aromatics layered over dark plum and peppery spice. The Viognier adds a floral, slightly silky texture that softens the tannins and brightens the mid-palate. It's an easy-drinking, food-friendly red with enough structure to hold up to hearty dishes without overwhelming them.
Serving: Serve at 15–17 °C.

Where it comes from
Western Cape, South Africa
Western Cape is the broad South African province that contains almost all of the country's vineyards, sweeping inland and along the coast from Cape Town.
Syrah
Syrah is a red grape from the Northern Rhône in France, responsible for some of the world's most dramatic, savoury reds.
Viognier
Viognier is a white grape from the northern Rhône Valley in France, long the signature of the tiny appellation Condrieu and a variety that came close to disappearing before a revival spread it far beyond its Rhône home.
