About this Item

2015 - 2017, 2019 - 2021 Dewaldt Heyns - Dewaldt Heyns Family Wines - Weathered Hands Shiraz
6 (1 x 6)

6 x 750ml bottles, comprising one bottle of each of the following vintages of Dewaldt Heyns Weathered Hands Shiraz: 2015, 2016, 2017, 2019, 2020, 2021

Unearth the soul of the Swartland. Embark on a journey through time and terroir with a vertical selection of Dewaldt Heyns’ lauded Weathered Hands Shiraz. This exclusive lot showcases six vintages of this exceptional Swartland wine, allowing you to witness the subtle nuances each year imparts.

Crafted by Dewaldt Heyns, a child of the Swartland, Weathered Hands Shiraz is a tribute to his heritage and the land that shaped him. Made from low-yielding, dry-land bush vines, this Shiraz reflects the region’s rugged beauty and the vine’s resilience.

With this vertical, witness the evolution of this wine over six vintages, from its most recent release up until the 2015 vintage. Explore the interplay of dark fruit, peppery spice, and floral notes, all intertwined with the subtle influence of oak.

We believe as you experience how the tannins soften and the flavours deepen with age, you will gain an appreciation for the ageing potential of this remarkable Shiraz.
