The Wanderer Zinfandel Red Wine vs Wildeberg Wild House Shiraz 2022

Wildeberg Wild House Shiraz 2022

The Wild House Shiraz is generous, full ye fresh with a seam of minerality from its sandy, granite soil in the trellised Shiraz vineyards of Paarl. Grapes for this wine were carefully hand-harvested and sorted. Most of the fruit comes from Paarl, but we added a small amount of Franschhoek fruit to the final blend to give it a bit of spice and ‘edge’. Naturally fermented in stainless steel tanks, 50% of this blend then undergoes malolactic fermentation in 300 and 600 litre French oak barrels (10% of which are new). Inviting aromas of black summer desert, ripe black cherry, vanilla and even a touch of raspberry. On the palate it has more rich black fruit with a few smoky notes with a touch of dark chocolate.
