Product information "Piekenierskloof Shiraz 2021"
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.

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.
