About this Item

Rhône Collection
2001, 2005 Alto, Zandvliet
3 (1 x 3) 750ml

This lot consists of the following wines:
Alto Estate Shiraz 2001 (1 x 750ml)
Zandvliet Kalkveld Shiraz 2005 (2 x 750ml)

Alto Estate Shiraz 2001:
This Shiraz, which is the brainchild of Schalk van der Westhuizen who became winemaker at Alto in 2001, is already quite accessible, but has sufficient structure to last for many years to come.

Zandvliet Kalkveld Shiraz 2005:
The Kalkveld single vineyard lies on the southern slope of the Hill of Enon, a magical hill that dominates the centre of Zandvliet itself. This hill, so-named after the complex conglomerate of limestone, pebbles and clay - the Enon Formation - is brushed daily by the southeasterly breeze cooling the vineyard. The unique terroir gives the wine its singular mineral footprint.
