Kaapzicht Shiraz 2018

Tasting Notes
Analysis & Info

Deep purple core, with a ruby rim. The wine opens with sweet floral perfumes, developing further to reveal wild bramble, mulberry, spicy rhubarb and liquorice. The palate is generous and juicy, but also quite focused and elegant, with harmonious, well integrated oak, and a clean, appetizing and long finish.
