Olsen Description

The charming boutique cellar of Greg Olsen is nestled against the slopes of the picturesque Klein Drakenstein Mountains.  Hand-selected grape clusters were harvested and hand-sorted to ensure that only ripe, healthy grapes were used to create Olsen Private Vineyards Shiraz.  During fermentation the fermentation cap was punched through by hand every 3 to 4 hours with fermentation taking place in open stainless steel tanks at temperatures between 26C – 29C.  After pressing the free run juice is blended into first fill 90% French Oak and 10% American Oak barrels and matured for 14 months.

Perfect complexity of pepper and blackberry flavors with hints of dark plum spice and licorice. The maturation in oak added spice and softened the tannins to perfection.
