Arabella Shiraz 2008
by Stephen de Wet

  • Rich, spicy and smoother than Lionel Ritchie dressed in velvet
  • Astonishing value due to weak SA Rand
  • Made by one of our favourite South African wineries. Winners of double double Gold medals at last year's Veritas awards

"My greatest pleasure has been to start Arabella, my winery, from scratch in 2006. With the help of my children, Nicky & Jamie, it's turned in to a real family business where everyone is completely dedicated. My family owned a wine farm when I was growing up, and at the age of 17 my mother put me to work in the cellar. I absolutely loved. So winemaking was something I knew I wanted to do from a young age. I love the creativity involved with being a winemaker. Every step taken, from vineyard to bottling, will effect the outcome of the wine. It's vital to have a very clear idea of what the outcome should be and the steps needed in the process to achieve the desired result."
