Cederberg
Cederberg is a high-altitude wine estate in the remote Cederberg Wilderness Area, owned by the Nieuwoudt family for generations. With vineyards surrounded by rugged mountain terrain, the estate is known for Sauvignon Blanc, Chenin Blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon and other South African wines shaped by altitude, isolation and dramatic growing conditions.
Description
A multi-layered Shiraz showing red cherries and mulberries with a subtle mocha, clove nuances. Complex on palate with long lasting flavours of red fruit and dark chocolate. Full bodied wine with mouth-watering tannins.
Food Pairing
Pair this wine with South African game with soft dark spices like cloves and cinnamon, fresh pepper and spice balls. If the barbeque includes slightly sweet sauces, try the Shiraz, but a strong cheese soufflé will make the knees go weak. End the evening with a tiny block of dark chocolate – meaning skip the port. Marrow and truffle are two richer foods that pair very well with Shiraz.
