Description
Nedreburg Shiraz – Seductive in its charms, this wine is simultaneously bright with black berry fruit, pepper and spice as well as subtle, nuanced, delicate with a touch of floral yet also powerful and structured.
THE RANGE – The Winemasters ensemble, comprising a top-quality range of varietal offerings, is named to honour the Paarl winery’s long-established tradition of winemaking excellence. These classically styled, food-friendly wines with abundant fruit flavours, elegance and finesse, treasure the integrity of the grapes in every step of the winegrowing and winemaking journey. Every drop demonstrates an unwavering commitment to world-class vineyard and cellar skills.
VINEYARDS – The grapes were sourced from top-performing vineyards situated predominantly in the Stellenbosch, Philadelphia, Paarl and Wellington wine-growing areas. The vines are grown in granite and shale soils, resulting in grapes with a higher natural acidity and resulting freshness. Open vineyard canopies bring about greater sunlight penetration of the grape bunches, contributing to a well-balanced acidity, in turn contributing to better tannin structure and fruit expression as well as deeper colour intensity.
WINEMAKING – The grapes were harvested at 24° to 25º Balling during February and March. On arrival at the cellar, the fruit was gently crushed and fermented on the skins in temperature controlled stainless-steel tanks at 25º to 28º C for 14 days. Upon completion of malolactic fermentation, the wine was matured in contact with mostly French and some American oak for a period of 12 to 15 months.
FOOD SUGGESTIONS – Pork and prune stew, long-braised pot roast, beef olives or a simple carvery with all the trimmings.
