The De Grendel Shiraz 2018 has a palate that expresses red fruits, soft fused tannins and a luscious savoury finish. This Shiraz pairs perfectly with Karoo lamb, homemade cheeseburgers or an earthy mushrooms risotto. 

 

This Shiraz portrays a bright purple colour with a deep violet rim. The De Grendel Shiraz has aromas of peppery spices, blackcurrants and fruit cake that merges with the whiff of Karoo shrubs and violet scents. A wine that will only grow in characteristics over the next eight years.

 

De Grendel is not just one of the oldest farms in Cape Town, it is the only vineyard in South Africa that is 350m above sea level and only seven kilometers from the ocean. The farm is a testament to the centuries-old history of the Graaff family.

De Grendel

De Grendel, meaning latch or lock in Dutch, is one of Cape Town’s oldest farms, stretching out over almost 330 hectares on the fynbos-covered slopes of Tygerberg Hill, North of Cape Town. Sir David Graaff first planted vines on De Grendel in 1999, almost 200 years after the first vines were destroyed. When Sir David died on 24 January 2015, his eldest son, Sir De Villiers, who inherited the baronetcy, was set to continue the proud farming tradition of his forefathers.
