The Wine The Wine
South Africa
Region:Western Cape
This Shiraz came from dry-farmed, old vineyards in the Riebeek Valley, close to the sleepy town of Riebeek Kasteel. It's another top-quality effort from Ben and his talented team (although he admittedly has an amazingly high-quality battery of vineyards at his disposal). To create added complexity and texture, Ben introduced a little oak to a proportion of this wine, and it seriously pays off.
