Durbanville Hills
The unique location of Durbanville Hills’ cellar a mere 20 minutes from Cape Town’s city centre, offers not only a spectacular view of Table Mountain and Table Bay but also an extraordinary terroir that stabilises temperatures and eliminates extremes of heat and cold. Although the Durbanville area is renowned for its SAUVIGNON BLANC that excels under the cool conditions where it is grown mostly on the cool south-facing slopes, the range of RED WINES also benefit from the warmer valley outskirts and opposing northern slopes.
Description
The 2022 vintage of Durbanville Hills Shiraz exhibits a deep ruby red color. On the nose, it presents aromas of sweet oriental spices and aniseed, complemented by rich red-fleshed plums, cedar wood, nutmeg, and white pepper. The palate is dominated by juicy, sweet plum and cherry characters, with hints of white pepper and vanilla pod lingering on the aftertaste. This medium- to full-bodied wine boasts a well-crafted tannin backbone.
Food Pairing
This Shiraz pairs exceptionally well with peppercorn fillet steak, carpaccio, and spicy dishes.
