Namaqua Reserve Shiraz Cabernet

Namaqualand is famous for its spectacular displays of wild spring flowers, an amazing expression of South Africa's biodiversity. Here in the heart of the Olifants River region, so named because of the profusion of elephants found there by the first European explorers in the Cape, the grapes for Namaqua wines grow and mature in ideal conditions.
