Product information "Erasmus Family Wines Shiraz 2017"
The Erasmus Family Wines Rhone Reserve is a truly masterful Swartland cuvée with an immensely seductive and exciting bouquet. Beguiling aromas of dried rose petals, intense mulberries and black fruits ensnare the nose with subtle hints of pepper, maraschino cherry and a distinctly lively and fruit-driven acidity. The round, supple and densely structured palate is caressed by juicy tannins and a discreet hint of graphite, which ends in a long-lasting and soft finish.

The different grape varieties of this award-winning cuvée fermented separately in open concrete fermenters and matured for 14 months in French barriques after completion of fermentation. Only 10 barrels and a total quantity of 3000 bottles were produced of this prestigious drop.
