Kleine Zalze Family Reserve Shiraz 2018, Stellenbosch

Family Reserve range, the flagship collection from one of Stellenbosch’s most respected wine estates. The focus of the range is on expressing a true sense of place, whether through single-vineyard wines or thoughtful blends from exceptional sites. In the cellar, this vineyard knowledge is paired with a continual pursuit of refinement, incorporating techniques such as amphora and concrete egg fermentation to enhance texture and purity. The result is a collection of wines that are limited in volume and truly distinctive — wines made for special occasions, reflecting both the sites they come from and the careful decisions made throughout Every year the grapes for the Family Reserve Shiraz are harvested from a single superb block on our farm in Stellenbosch. Full-bodied with rich aromas of berry fruit complemented by sweet spice, smooth, smoky tannins and a long sumptuous finish.
