Guardian Peak Shiraz 2018
ABV 14%.
Total production: 56 000 bottles
Price: R95
WO Western Cape. Made for drinking young, fermented in a combination of open and closed stainless steel tanks to preserve the fresh fruit flavours, then matured six months in seasoned French oak barrels. Pure ‘Syrah’ expression on the nose: red fruit, white pepper and baking spice. Crunchy red cherry and cranberry fruit follow through to the palate, where the spice also lingers, with hints of cocoa and liquorice, too. Light and fresh and soft with a savoury crushed herb finish.
