Hartenberg
Hartenberg is a historic Stellenbosch wine estate established in 1692 on the slopes of the Bottelary Hills. Known particularly for Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon, the estate combines regenerative viticulture with a long-term commitment to its vineyards, producing structured South African wines shaped by site and careful farming.
Description
On the nose, it reveals underbrush and dried herbs, complemented by an intricate blend of savoury spices, cinnamon, and black pepper. Red fruits and berries dance harmoniously with subtle hints of coriander and smoke. On the palate, its initial elegance gracefully unfolds into a bold and vibrant expression of red berries intermingling with a rich tapestry of warm spice and earthy, savoury notes. With firm tannins promising great ageing potential, this wine is destined to evolve into an even more extraordinary masterpiece over time. Built to age to its betterment for up to 20 years from vintage.
Food Pairing
Fillet of kudu with a red wine jus, rare roast sirloin, wild mushroom risotto.
