The Magic of South African Shiraz
South African Shiraz wines are renowned for their full-bodied, spicy character that is both complex and inviting. The unique terroir of South Africa’s wine regions, from the Rhône-like climate of Paarl to the robust character of Swartland, contributes to the distinctive taste profile of these wines.
A Closer Look at Our Selection
One of the standout wines in our collection is the Jam Jar Shiraz by Indaba Wines. This wine is a perfect example of the quality and character of South African Shiraz. It is made from grapes grown mainly in vineyards surrounding Paarl, a region ideal for Shiraz cultivation. The wine delivers aromas of ripe blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries with dark chocolate undertones. It strikes a perfect balance between sweetness and acidity, making it a very approachable Shiraz.
The Making of South African Shiraz
The process of creating these wines is as unique as the wines themselves. For instance, the Jam Jar Shiraz undergoes a fermentation process that begins spontaneously in stainless steel tanks, using only indigenous yeasts. After fermentation, the wine is left on its skins for an additional five days, and regular pumpovers are performed. This meticulous process contributes to the wine’s distinctive flavour profile.
