Description
The Simonsig Two's Company Cabernet Sauvignon Shiraz is a distinctive red wine from Stellenbosch, South Africa. This modern blend unites two grape varieties that perfectly complement each other: Cabernet Sauvignon provides structure and depth, while Shiraz adds juiciness and spice. The name Two's Company is a tribute to this harmonious combination. The result is a smooth, fruity red wine that is ready to drink and versatile for dining. The wine is also vegan.
Sour cherries, blackberries, raspberries, and white pepper
In the glass, the wine has a deep ruby red color. The aroma is expressive with notes of sour cherries, blackcurrants, blackberries, and raspberries, complemented by subtle hints of white pepper and soft spices. On the palate, the wine is juicy and supple, with ripe red and black fruit, soft tannins, and a pleasant spicy finish. Cabernet Sauvignon gives the wine firmness, while Shiraz provides a round, fruity style.
Modern vinification with subtle oak aging
The grapes are hand-harvested from various vineyards of Simonsig Estate in Stellenbosch. After cold soaking, controlled fermentation follows. The majority of the wine then matures for several months in stainless steel tanks and concrete vats with French oak staves, while a small portion ages in French oak barriques. This process creates a wine with abundant fruit, soft tannins, and a subtle oak influence.
Perfect with barbecue, burgers, and pasta
This red wine is an excellent accompaniment to grilled beef, hamburgers, spare ribs, pizza, spaghetti Napolitana, carpaccio, pork, and barbecue dishes. Its fruity and spicy character also shines beautifully with a cheese board featuring hard cheeses and cured meats.

Let customers speak for us
We hebben hemmin Maastricht leren kennen en laten hem niet meer los. Een volle wijn die in balans is. We proeven zachte tonen van abrikoos en perzik maar ook de frisheid van citrus. Het beetje aards, mineralig maakt hem
Interessant.
Wij vinden hem erg lekker bij een risotto met zeevruchten.
Goede service, maar onze intercommen liggen eruit dus de bezorger kon niet bellen, toen de dichtstbijzijnde afleveradres Lidl,
Maar hele klus om zware doos te vervoeren, daarom maar een winkelwagen meegenomen.
Very tasty kosher wine, exactly my taste. Fast delivery, would definitely order again!
Een heerlijk zoete rode wijn uit Israël voor Avondmaalsvieringen. Ook lekker voor mensen die nooit drinken
Zie boven.
Het is heerlijke koshere druivensap voor Shabbat.
Habe jetzt das 2te mal hier bestellt und es lief wie beim ersten Mal alles super, danke
Schnelle Lieferung, sicher verpackt, rundum ein zuverlässiger Händler!
Empfehle ich gerne weiter.
wel even lucht geven en niet al te koud drinken. heerlijk bij de dis of tapas, maar voor zomaar ook heerlijk.
Kan bij bijna alles, maar is los ook erg lekker. (en met een zak chips -hoe oneerbieding - ook zo op) ;-)
Wel even een beetje lucht geven (goede decateren - kan een beetje droesem hebben), deze wijn is in het begin wat verlegen, maar met een beetje aanmoediging een echte gangmaker.
