Alto Shiraz 750ml
Place
A leading red wine producer, with a century old heritage, nestled high up the Helderberg Mountains in South Africa’s Golden Triangle. A champion of Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon.
Quality
Alto is an ambassador of uncompromising quality Stellenbosch wine to the world.
Heritage
Proud of its heritage and inherently bound to its sense of place, Alto is one of the few wine farms that have changed winemakers 4 times in over 100 years with 2 being father and son combinations. Family and traditions are important values and are passed down through the generations.
Collectability
As echoed by the most relevant international critics, Alto wines are suitable for a decade long maturation and are a must-have for the discerning collector.
Tasting Note
This wine is grown under optimum conditions in deep soils of decomposed granite and clay on the lower slopes of our estate. This Shiraz is yet another example of the subtle evolution of the Alto stable and is the perfect balance between traditional spice and new world elegance.

This is a very nice shiraz. Almost a mocha after taste but full of red berries. @ alto doing a wine tasting with the wifey
A bit rich for my liking but bold nonetheless
This Shiraz boasts a complex palate that balances spices, tannins and acidity very well. The final product is smooth and flavourful, with pepper notes complimenting plum and even some secondary dried flowers and prune.
Full bodied Syrah, enjoyable with rich plum taste. My rating 3.9 vintage 2015
"So great to be able to receive a regular delivery of good wine rather than the usual 12 bottle case sold by most 'wine clubs' "
