Rustenberg Shiraz

This line has been retired.

Sourced from hand-harvested fruit in the acclaimed Stellenbosch region, this Shiraz exhibits an abundance of red and dark berry fruit supported by a well-structured palate and fine grained tannins.  This wine was cask matured for 15 months in French oak barriques, and will benefit from further maturation under ideal cellaring conditions.

Rustenberg Peter Barlow

The Peter Barlow pays tribute to the man who had the foresight to purchase Rustenberg in the 1940s and invest in making it the icon it is today.  No expense is spared in the making of this wine:  it is sourced from hand-harvested Cabernet Sauvignon from acclaimed vineyards on the slopes of the Simonsberg mountain in Stellenbosch, and aged for 24 months in French oak.  It exhibits an abundance of cassis and blackcurrant, with hints of cedar and cigar box, plenty of body and a structured backbone of fine-grained tannins.  Patient cellaring of this wine will be rewarded.
