The most powerful red wine from Oude Kaap
Wijnhuis Oude Kaap is part of the large and well-known Douglas Green Bellingham winery, known as the DGB group. This winery has multiple vineyards and produces various premium wines throughout South Africa. It was founded in 1990 with the goal of producing affordable and progressive wines. And they've certainly succeeded; we're proud to sell these wines, because let's be honest, at this price, they're truly world-class. The vineyards for this Shiraz Reserve Collection are located in the Franschhoek region, where the climate is perfect for this red wine. The afternoon sun always shines beautifully, allowing the harvest to ripen easily. The fresh ocean breeze and cool nights give the harvest a restful harvest and ensure the Shiraz grapes ripen evenly and peacefully. After the harvest, which always begins in the morning, this Shiraz is aged in oak. French oak barrels are chosen, making this red wine fuller and more powerful. The result is a wine you'll never forget.
