Product Notes

Darling Cellars Black Granite Shiraz Reserve wine is an exquisite, South African red wine that captures your senses instantly. This noble Shiraz oozes charm with its spectacular deep ruby colour, luring the nose with a lush bouquet of ripe red cherries, dark chocolate and a hint of smoky oak. On the palate, it boasts robust tannins and provocative flavours, including blackcurrant, liquorice and spice. It finishes with a delightful freshness and intensity that lingers. Best complemented with hearty meat dishes. This wine is a testament to the fine art of winemaking, showing off the exceptional terroir of Darling's vineyards.

Tasting Notes

This is a remarkable Shiraz with an expressive nose and great complexity. Fruits such as pomegranate, strawberries, vanilla, white pepper, bright red fruit together with a hint of smokiness will meet you on the nose. A medium bodied wine with plush structure and fruit following on to your palate with a lingering aftertaste. Good balance between fruit and wood.
