"Dark garnet in appearance with plummy red edges. Nose: Spice jumps out of the glass, baked plums, dark cherry and savoury wood. Palate: Rich and decadent. Dark fruit, plums and black cherries. Great balance to mid palate with hints of saltiness and a juicy, long, well balanced finish."

--------THE PRODUCER--------

Luddite Wines

Niels Verburg is the tour-de-force behind the Luddite Wines. As a young winemaker treading-the-boards of the wine world he travelled all over the place. In Chile he witnessed passion for wine like he had never known and it was in Australia where he fell in love with Shiraz. He wished to come back to South Africa and start his own winery combining those two crucial elements. The year 2000 saw the introduction of Luddites Wines to the world with their Shiraz.

--------THE GRAPE--------

Rhone Red Blend

The Rhone Red Blend is often known as the GSM blend whereby the three main grapes are Grenache, Syrah and Mouvedre. In actuality there can be up to 13 grapes made into this blend, by law, in the southern Rhone Valley. You can have lighter and more floral versions of the Rhone Red Blend or have bolder and oakier versions depending where in the world it is made. They are most popular in France, California and Australia.

--------THE REGION--------

Stellenbosch

Stellenbosch is the leading quality region in South Africa. It is home to many of the most famous estates and many of the top wines. Generally speaking it is a red wine hub with Pinotage, Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon at the helm, though recently more white wines are taking over.
