Product information "Piekenierskloof Shiraz 2020"

The Piekenierskloof Shiraz indulges the senses with a stunning aroma of dark plums, black olives, ripe blackberries and fennel. On the palate, it presents itself with immensely soft tannins and well-integrated oak notes. The finish is long, complex and soft.

Treatment in the cellar

The grapes were handpicked and cold soaked for 24 hours. Fermentation was started with selected yeast strains at a regulated 26°C. Then, at the end of the alcoholic fermentation, the must was pressed and transferred into French oak foudres with a capacity of 3000 litres per barrel. Both the malolactic fermentation and the maturation of 14 months took place in the foudre.
