Tasting Notes

Wine Profile:
Vergelegen’s Reserve Shiraz is a bold yet sophisticated expression of Stellenbosch’s terroir, crafted with precision to showcase the varietal’s signature spice, dark fruit, and silky texture. This expertly aged Shiraz offers a perfect balance of power and elegance, making it a standout in the Vergelegen portfolio.

Appearance:
Deep ruby with a violet rim, hinting at both intensity and vibrancy.

Nose:
A captivating aromatic profile of ripe blackberry, dark cherry, and plum, layered with notes of black pepper, smoked meats, and cloves. Subtle undertones of leather, cocoa, and earthy minerality add further complexity.

Palate:
Rich and full-bodied, the palate unfolds with luscious dark fruit, complemented by finely integrated tannins and a velvety mouthfeel. Savory notes of black olive, mocha, and spice are balanced by a fresh acidity, leading to a long, lingering finish with hints of dark chocolate and subtle oak nuances.

Food Pairing:
An excellent match for grilled lamb, slow-braised beef, and smoky barbecued meats. It also pairs beautifully with aged cheeses, charcuterie, and rich vegetarian dishes featuring mushrooms or eggplant.

Cellaring Potential:
Enjoy now for its vibrancy and depth, or cellar for 8–12 years to develop further complexity and refinement.
