What can I say? We like red wine. :)
Mr.R bought a bottle of Vanderburg Shiraz Pinotage 2013 from our local Co-Op.
Or to be totally accurate, Mr.R bought two bottles of Vanderburg Shiraz Pinotage 2013 from our local Co-Op.
Well, he couldn't not buy it. Why? The Co-Op had reduced it from £6.75 to £4.49 - Excellent!
From the bottle label -
Layers of sweet spice, berry and subtle plum aromas follow through to a rounded palate. Its soft tannins and full fruit work perfectly well with medium-rare chops and it will not be overpowered by strong flavours of garlic, rosemary or caramelised onions. Enjoy now, or within two years from vintage.
Barley likes to help me when I'm taking photos. Good dog.
Vanderburg Shiraz Pinotage 2013 is a lovely wine from the Western Cape, South Africa. It's 14.5%vol.
We thought it went really well with our food, which is pretty much always something seriously spicy, and we could definitely taste plums, damsons, and a touch of nutmeg. Very nice, and a bargain too.
It reminded us of our travels to South Africa, where we enjoyed lots of lovely trips to vineyards and of course tasting their wines.
Are you a fan of South African wine?
