Initially the nose shows an abundance of black fruits and sweet spice aromas, later opening up to a more savoury, umami character. The palate continues this profile with enchanting, voluptuous biltong flavours and fine, grippy tannins that allow for a lingering spicy finish.

In the vineyard
The variety that made Hartenberg famous. Hartenberg is the oldest family-owned producer of Shiraz in South Africa, spanning a period of some 50 years. Their Estate Shiraz is hand-picked from multiple blocks of vineyards with vines which at least 20 years old and produce relatively limited yield as a result. The soils in these vineyards are mainly stoney soils with a portion with soils of higher clay content.
