Product information "Muratie Ronnie Melck Shiraz 2021"
The Muratie Ronnie Melck Shiraz is an immensely refined wine and spoils with a complex bouquet of fragrant violets, dark chocolate, black pepper and salty, hearty hints of smoked meat. Its silky tannin, nuances of dark oak, black plums and ripe mail berries caress the palate with a juicy character. Soft and rich with excellent structure, this Shiraz brings pleasure at its best!
A direct descendant of Martin Melck, who purchased this noble and graceful wine farm for his daughter in 1763, Ronnie Melck fulfilled his long-awaited life's dream by purchasing the Muratie Winery in 1987. After many many decades he welcomed the farm back into the Melck family. With his legendary style, warm-hearted personality and innate and instinctive talent for wine making, Ronnie Melck has made a name for himself and is the only owner in the long family history whose bones have now found their final resting place under trees on the Muratie Wine Estate on the highest hill. The Ronnie Melck Shiraz, with its intense ruby red color, sweet spiciness and floral and berry notes, is a tribute to this legendary winemaker - down-to-earth, honorable and full of integrity.
