Secret Safari Dry Shiraz 75cl
You want something with a bit of swagger tonight. This is it. Secret Safari Dry Shiraz is deep, dark and fruity, with a peppery kick and a smooth, dry finish that makes you go back for the next sip before you've finished thinking about the last one. Pour it next to a plate of nyama choma and you'll get exactly why we keep it in stock. We'll have it at your door fast, whatever the hour.
First sniff and you get a wave of dark fruit. Think blackberry, black cherry, a bit of juicy plum. Underneath there's that classic Shiraz black pepper and a soft whisper of vanilla spice. On the tongue it's full and velvety, the fruit rolls through, and the tannins (the grippy, drying bit that makes your mouth feel clean) are fine and well behaved rather than harsh. Dry all the way, so it's about depth and spice, not sweetness. Properly bold, properly moreish.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
This is a Bruce Jack label out of South Africa's Western Cape. Bruce Jack is one of the country's most respected winemakers, the guy who started the cult Flagstone winery back in 1998 and later ran Constellation's South African winemaking before going solo with his own global brand. He's a bit of a romantic about it too: a slice of every sale goes to beach clean-ups and a music-education trust back home. So you're drinking a serious pedigree without paying serious-pedigree money.
