ALTO SHIRAZ RED WINE 750ML | 14% ALCOHOL VOLUME | 奥图西拉干红葡萄酒
The award-winning Shiraz is bright and rich in colour with a perfumed nose of floral notes backed up by violets and delicate spice undertones. A beautifully balanced wine with excellent fruit purity and complexity on the palate
.
The grapes were harvested by hand at 24.5° to 26° Balling in mid-March. After destalking and crushing, the juice was fermented for 10 days on the skins in stainless-steel tanks at 25° to 27°C. A small portion of about 10% of the grapes are whole bunch fermented. We use a pump-over system. After malolactic fermentation, the wine was aged in wood for 18 months, using a combination of first, second and third-fill French oak barrels.
Food pairing: Excellent enjoyed with Mediterranean style dishes, spicy lamb, beef or pork roasts. A great accompaniment to smoked meat as well as a traditional South African Barbeque.
