-13%KWV Classic Shiraz 75cl
Save KSh 230 · 13% off
Picture a plate of nyama choma fresh off the grill and a glass of something dark and generous in your other hand. That's this. KWV Classic Collection Shiraz is ripe, juicy and rounded, with just enough black pepper kick to keep it interesting. No homework required. You pour it, it delivers. And at 14% it's got real weight without tipping into heavy. Grab it for the steak night, the long catch-up, the late one. We'll get it to your door fast.
First sniff and you're into ripe dark fruit. Think mulberry, plum, black cherry, with a little whiff of vanilla and dried herbs underneath. Then a turn of white pepper and warm spice, which is classic Shiraz signature, the thing that stops it being just another fruity red. The tannins (that grippy, mouth-drying feel) are smooth and well behaved here, so it goes down rounded and velvety with a finish that hangs around. It's medium-to-full bodied. Dry, but the fruit is so ripe it almost reads sweet on the first sip.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
KWV is South African wine royalty. It started back in 1918 as a co-operative of Western Cape wine farmers banding together to lift the quality of the country's wine, and over a century later it's still one of the biggest names out of Paarl, in the heart of the Cape Winelands. Their cellar complex there is one of the largest on the planet. The Classic Collection is their everyday, dependable range, the bottles made to actually open and drink rather than tuck away. This Shiraz is exactly that brief done well.
