Cape Indaba’s Shiraz is made in a style that showcases the peppery/smoky richness of the grape. Cape Indaba purchases the fruit for this 100% Shiraz from some of the best growers and finest vineyards in the Western Cape (Western Cape is a ‘Wine of Origin’, what we know as an Appellation). Its aromas of red berries and cherries flow into a light-bodied, rich mouthful of spicy, well-structured, robust fruit. Silky smooth tannins and a swath of vanilla on the finish complete the wine.

- Now that it has adopted a multi-racial attitude, and now that the world has embraced its government and its exports, South Africa has become a major wine producer. Unfortunately, South Africa has had a difficult time joining the ranks of competitive winemaking countries. During the anti-apartheid sanctions in the 1980s, South African wine was dealt the huge blow when it was removed from the international market, and for political reasons it was quite difficult for wine producers to market wine...
