Vergelegen Reserve Shiraz
The Vergelegen Reserve Shiraz 750ml is a sophisticated South African red wine that brings the prestigious terroir of Stellenbosch’s Helderberg slopes to Nairobi’s vibrant social scene, exclusively available through Frontdoor Kenya’s premier delivery service. Crafted by Vergelegen Wine Estate, a historic winery owned by Anglo American with over 300 years of heritage, this Shiraz is sourced from the estate’s virus-free Rooiland vineyards, including the world’s oldest virus-free vineyard planted in 1999. Ideal for elegant dinners, festive gatherings like Easter 2025, or cozy evenings, its intense, fruit-driven profile has earned accolades, including a 92-point rating from Tim Atkin MW for the 2019 vintage. Delivered in under 45 minutes by Frontdoor Kenya, this Shiraz elevates Nairobi’s celebratory moments with unparalleled refinement.
Savor a Rich and Complex Delight
Vergelegen Reserve Shiraz captivates with a deep ruby hue and an aromatic bouquet of ripe black cherry, cassis, and blackberry, layered with hints of liquorice, violets, black pepper, and cloves. On the palate, it’s full-bodied yet elegant, delivering concentrated berry fruit, finely integrated soft tannins, and a velvety texture with a long, clean finish accented by spice and earthy minerality. With a 14.44% ABV, it’s best served at 15-17°C (59-63°F), making it ideal for Nairobi’s warm evenings or cooler nights. Its bold yet balanced structure appeals to both casual sippers and seasoned wine enthusiasts, offering a luxurious experience with every glass. The Shiraz’s expressive character, shaped by Stellenbosch’s north-westerly slopes, makes it a standout choice for Nairobi’s discerning palates.
Pair with Nairobi’s Culinary Favorites
This Shiraz’s robust versatility makes it a perfect match for Nairobi’s diverse dining culture. Pair it with grilled red meats, venison, or smoky nyama choma to complement its intense fruit and spice. Its soft tannins enhance rich stews, braised lamb, or hard cheeses like aged cheddar, making it ideal for festive feasts or intimate dinners. Serve at a rooftop soiree or family gathering to impress guests with its complex depth.

Crafted with Stellenbosch Mastery
Vergelegen sources Shiraz grapes from its Rooiland vineyards on north to north-westerly slopes, benefiting from a maritime climate and virus-free vines. Hand-picked at peak ripeness, the grapes are de-stemmed but not crushed, with 15% stems added back for complexity. The fruit is cooled to 8°C for a 24-168 hour cold soak, followed by fermentation at 26°C and a 21-day maceration on the skins. After malolactic fermentation in stainless steel, the wine ages for 15 months in 25% new French oak barrels, adding subtle spice while preserving fruit intensity. This meticulous process, guided by winemaker André van Rensburg, results in a Shiraz that’s both powerful and refined, reflecting Vergelegen’s commitment to excellence. Its quality has earned awards, including a Double Gold at the 2020 Veritas Awards for the 2018 vintage.
