Protea Shiraz 2019

The grapes were selected from various optimum growing regions, combining diverse terroir to create a consistent style that is fruit driven and lively, as is customery Protea wines. The 2019 South African vintage was lower in volume than ever before due to the preceding drought.  Despite the smaller crop, good quality wines can be expected from this vintage. With smaller berries, there is a good concentration of flavour and a balance between acidity and sugar, contributing to the expected quality of 2019 vintage.

Protea Shiraz is a dry, spicy, medium-bodied red wine with succulent plum and black cherry flavours, followed by a dark berry and spice nose. Produced, bottled and matured by Anthonij Rupert Wyne in Franschhoek.
