Description
In a nutshell:
A smooth, spice-kissed Stellenbosch red full of dark berries and savoury herbs, with a velvety finish.
The lowdown:
This full-bodied Stellenbosch red puts Shiraz firmly in the spotlight, with a touch of Mourvèdre and a smidge of Grenache lending a bit of support. Aromas of violets, redcurrant, and cherries come through, with whispers of white pepper and liquorice adding a bit of intrigue. On the palate, it's all about those classic Shiraz hedgerow berry fruits, dried herbs, and a gentle peppery spice, with just enough oak to smooth the edges. The fresh, vibrant acidity keeps it lively, lifting the dark fruit and finishing clean and crisp. Seriously drinkable, but not so serious you won't want a second glass.
The Producer:
Tucked away In Stellenbosch's Schapenberg hills, Journey's End Vineyards have a view that would make even the most jaded traveller pause. It's not just a pretty spot though - this part of the world is tailor-made for growing grapes. Owned by the Gabb family since 1995, originally from Shropshire in the UK, they've grown from modest beginnings into a highly respected estate. Their philosophy is refreshingly straightforward: minimal intervention, maximum expression of the terroir. The results are wines that speak for themselves - and the steady stream of awards they get suggests they've struck the right balance between craft and nature.
When to drink:
Being nicely smooth and full bodied makes this an excellent partner to red meats from the grill or barbie, or in winter big beefy stews are just the thing.
