Tasting Note

This Shiraz has plenty of natural brambly red and black fruit on the well-defined nose. The palate is medium-bodied with a fine line of acidity, crisp tannins and expressive red berry fruit mixed with spice and cloves on the finish.

Product Notes

Rustenberg Shiraz is a premium red wine produced in the Stellenbosch region of South Africa. Made from grapes grown on the estate's vineyards, this wine boasts a deep, ruby color and a complex bouquet of red and dark fruit; blackberry, raspberry and plums. On the palate, this wine is well-structured, with firm tannins and a good balance of acidity. The oak aging process contributes to its smoky, spicy flavor and a long, lingering finish. A versatile wine, Rustenberg Shiraz pairs perfectly with hearty meat dishes and rich cheeses. Perfect for those special occasions, this wine is a must-have for any wine enthusiast.

About the Winery

Rustenberg

The history of Rustenberg dates back to 1682. At that time, Roelof Pasman of Meurs recognised the potential of grapevine cultivation and wine production the place held. By 1781, he saw to it that about 3000 wine cases got created at the farm. The rate doubled as the century progressed towards its end. It compelled the winery to build a cellar. The produced wines have been bottled here for a continuous period ever since 1892.
