Product information "Cloof The Very Sexy Shiraz 2018"
Cloof The Very Sexy Shiraz has an intense and complex scent of an abundance of spices, with cloves particularly prominent. In a deep and dark ruby red, it presents itself in the glass and caresses the palate with a particularly soft tannin structure - incredibly concentrated and seductive aromas and taste nuances. The rich fruit of the wine blends perfectly with the fine wood tones of the best French oak and spoils the palate with a long, fruity and pleasantly dry aftertaste.
This thoroughly full-bodied wine, with the intensely spicy notes so typical of the Shiraz grape variety, comes from the Darling wine growing region in South Africa - a winegrowing area also known as "Shiraz heaven". Therefore not only the name of the wine is sexy, but also the absolutely successful pleasure experience.

This Shiraz was subjected to a two-day cold swelling phase at a constant 10ºC before fermenting on the skin at 30ºC for 8 days, separating free flowing and pressed juice. Once fermentation was completed, malolactic fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks, after which the wine was aged in oak barrels for 12 months.

Macht seinen Namen alle Ehre…
sehr gut gedecktes Rubinrot, klar. Würzig klare feine Nase nach dunklen Beeren und Kräuter. Am Gaumen saftig und würzig, frisch und elegant, dicht und fein. Zeigt auch Finesse. Insgesamt fein und elegant. Dicht. Schöne Länge. Hat Schmelz und Struktur.
