The Vondeling Baldrick Shiraz flows into the glass in a lush deep violet and exudes beguiling aromas of ripe plums, dark mulberries, fragrant cherry blossoms and violets as well as fine hints of cinnamon spice and pepper. On the palate this highly endowed Shiraz pampers the senses with its young but well rounded tannin and delicious nuances of ripe blueberries, dark olives and soft spices. With a medium body and lively character, this wine is an exciting pleasure for all Shiraz lovers!

Treatment in the cellarThe grapes were kept cool, partly destemmed and crushed, and fermented at a constant 22°C in open tanks. No commercial yeast cultures were used for the fermentation process. During fermentation, the wine was stirred several times by hand. This method allows better control. After fermentation was completed, the wine was placed in the traditional basket press and then filled into second and third French oak barrels. The wine matured for over a year in French oak.
