Product information "Groot Constantia Shiraz 2015"
Black as ink, the Groot Constantia Shiraz flows into the glass and exudes intense aromas of black and white pepper spice and nuances of fragrant violets paired with spicy notes of Cape Fynbos and blackcurrant. On the palate, the already sniffed notes continue, framed by firm tannins and fresh acidity, which provide a great ageing potential, although you can enjoy it immediately. Its complex depth and wonderful length provide top class pleasure!
