Product information "Vergelegen Shiraz 2020"

The Vergelegen Shiraz is a dark Shiraz of ruby red colour in the glass. It is characterised by aromas of juicy plums, fragrant violets, spices, chocolate, smoked peat and black berry fruit. Its ripe and soft tannins provide a well-balanced acidity and lead to a long, clean and fruit-dominated finish, its texture is incredibly soft and smooth. A Shiraz of gifted elegance!

Treatment in the cellar

Die Trauben wurden per Hand gelesen und über Nacht auf -20°C runtergekühlt. Am folgenden Tag wurden sie sortiert, entrappt und einer sieben Tage langen Quellphase bei Temperaturen zwischen 8° und 10°C unterzogen, bevor die Hefe hinzugefügt wurde. Nach der Gärung ruhte der Wein 35 Tage und reifte anschließend 16 Monate in zweit- und drittbefüllten 225 Liter Eichenfässern. 2018 war ein großartiges Jahr, das 2015, 2017 und 2018 zu einem Trio hervorragender Jahrgänge macht.
