Why this wine
Richard Kershaw is one of very few Masters of Wine making wine in South Africa, and the G.P.S. Series bottles each site separately rather than blending. This is the Walker Bay expression. Precise, and made to be compared.
Our advantages:
Description
How it tastes
Captivating florals underscored by purity and focus — black cherry, pomegranate, rose petal and raspberry framed by fine tannins.
The producer
G.P.S. stands for Grape Positioning System: small parcels selected from carefully chosen vineyards and bottled separately. Richard Kershaw MW trained as a chef in Sheffield before discovering wine; his wines are made in tiny quantities.
Food and drinking
Good with poultry & pork, red meat and cheese. Ready now, and will hold for a few years yet. Serve at 14–16°C.
