Hartenberg Doorkeeper Shiraz Mourvedre Grenache

Lourens River Valley is a beautifully complex wine masterfully crafted from classical varietals of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Excellent quality from soil, to cellar, to bottle. It’s the perfect blend to celebrate the everyday joys of life.

The wine has a deep ruby colour, inky depth, and a hint of garnet on the rim, igniting your senses with its arresting purity of fruit. It comes alive with an amalgamation of flavours, engulfing your palate with red currant, dried cranberry, red plum, plush mulberry and juicy black plum. A subtle note of cedar and wet slate adds a cool lift to the intensity of fruit, with aromas of freshly tilled earth and spicy notes of sweet English leather catapulting you back in time. This old-world charm evokes a sense of romanticism with a subtle perfume of rose petals and violets without forfeiting its youth and vibrancy like only the new world can offer. All of these nuances traverse your senses like a pendulum swinging between its old-world essence and new-world confidence. The balance persists with uncanny fruit purity on the palate and a refreshing acidity poised on fine-grained tannin, complete with a chalky mouthfeel and a long persistent finish.
