About This Wine...

Shiraz 45%, Cabernet Sauvignon 35% & Merlot 20%. Rich and ripe bramble fruits offer an appealing rounded palate. Ripe tannins and sustaining acid give some structure to the wine.

Named in honour of Hirundo rustica, that valiant breed of migrating bird: arrives in Northern Europe from South Africa in April, rears at least two clutches of young during summer, then migrates back to South Africa for a well earned holiday – a dream many of us have and few fulfil.
