Riebeek Cellars takes Gold

We’ve just heard that Riebeek Cellars, who are practically our neighbours, have won gold for their 2010 Kasteelberg Shiraz at the world renowned Decanter Awards. In addition to this they also took silver at the Syrah-du-monde in France. The grapes, from wines situated on the slopes of Kasteelberg, are hand selected and the wine is aged in oak barrels for 14 months before being bottled unfiltered. This is definitely something to be celebrated and just another excuse to visit the Riebeek Valley.
