Winery Review: "Often referred to as Shiraz Country, the Riebeek Valley is renowned for exceptional Shiraz wines. The Riebeek Shiraz is a lively rich wine, full bodied with a subdued smokiness on the nose and a pallet of ripe fruit and interesting spice."
My Review: This wine smelled awesome! The bouquet was full of ripe, dark berries, particularly blackberry. To taste, this full-bodied wine was dry, with light tannins. The bouquet carried through to the taste, as it overwhelmingly was full of berries. It also had a hint of black pepper which was quite lovely. I liked this wine. This wine was tasted on its own without food.
