Stellar Organics - Shiraz

This is our most widely planted cultivar and this year the grapes ripened at lower sugar levels than normal. This is good news in a traditionally warm area where high alcohols are the norm. A lot of this blend comes from our cooler vineyards. The wine has excellent colour and a marked peppery complexity.

Good colour meant that the wines could be pressed off even earlier into the ferment to give soft, dark coloured full flavoured wines.

Stellar Organics - Chenin/Sauvignon

This wine has a light golden yellow colour. On the nose, hints of sweet pears, toffee apple and pineapple. This fruit medley can also be tasted but the crisp acidity makes it slightly more serious than the nose would suggest.

This wine will work well with all shellfish, cold meats and mixed salads

Stellar Organics - 'Heaven on Earth' Dessert wine

During the drying of the grapes on straw and Rooibos, the fragrance of the Rooibos infuses the grapes. We then gather the grapes, put them through the crusher and de-stemmer and soak them in their own juice, at low temperature, to re-hydrate the more raisined berries. The mash is then pressed, introduced to Sauterne yeast and fermented in barrels until the yeast can go no further.

The resultant nectar, a marriage of ripe Muscat, indigenous Rooibos and clean, airy skies, has captured and preserved the last golden Autumn days. The scents and flavours of apricot, honey and Rooibos offer a taste of Heaven right here on Earth.

Serve chilled as an aperitif, pour over ice cream or enjoy with after-dinner cheese platter.

Stellar Organics - Shiraz Rose

This dry Rosé has the bright red colour of a toffee apple. The nose is reminiscent of sweet fruit and bread-and-butter pudding. The sweet taste opens to show flavours of mixed fruit cocktail.

The wine was made by bleeding off juice from various Shiraz vineyards after skin contact ranging from 2 to 12 hours. The fermenting must kept on having fresh juice added to it with each intake of Shiraz and this resulted in a long slow ferment at low temperatures 12-15°C This resulted in a wine with good fruit and a complex mouth feel.
