Bruce Jack Shiraz

South African Shiraz sits perfectly between the blockbusters of the Barossa and the refinement of the Rhone.

Selected vineyards are harvested early in the morning when still cool. Grapes are destemmed and fermented on the skins in a combination of open and closed tanks. Selected vineyards are punched down by hand and wild fermentation is encouraged. Open and closed pump overs are given to carefully extract colour and build a soft, juicy mouthfeel. The fermented wine is aged in a combination of stainless steel tanks and barrels. When ready the wine is painstakingly blended to create both complexity and yumminess.

Tasting Notes

Taste: The wine has aromas of ripe blackberry, black cherry, and oak. The taste is smooth with some tannins and a hint of spiciness. The wine has a rich body and a long finish
