Luddite
Some people describe Luddite Shiraz as Niels Verburg contained in a glass; Niels is six foot four and when he smiles appears to be beaming an embrace in your direction. As a young winemaker traveling the world Niels confirmed his love for Shiraz when working a harvest in Australia but it was a winery in Chile that inspired his wine-making method ‘It was as if I’d gone back 20 years it was ramshackle chaotic but they had great fruit and passion and I’d never seen that quality of wine.’
Description
The Luddite Shiraz 2021 is a beautifully structured wine that showcases deep crimson hues. It offers aromatic notes of violets, roses, and Turkish delight, complemented by hints of raspberries, red cherries, and cloves. The palate features juicy fruit and spice on entry, followed by flavours of cranberry and red currant balanced with firm tannins. The wine finishes long, with subtle touches of liquorice and a saline note that reflects the terroir of the Bot River region.
Food Pairing
This Shiraz pairs well with rich dishes such as grilled meats, stews, and mature cheeses. The wine's complex flavor profile and firm tannins make it a versatile match for hearty meals, enhancing the dining experience with its depth and structure.
