Marianne Wines
In the gentle hills of the wine region Stellenbosch , you will find the Winery Marianne, run by Franck Massard, known for its high-quality red wines. The cellar master and founder, a former sommelier from France, realized his dream here in 2004. The winery places great emphasis on sustainable farming practices and low yields to produce wines with strong character and Burgundy-like finesse.
Particularly noteworthy are the Marianne Pinotage – a tribute to South Africa’s flagship grape variety Pinotage – and the Marianne Floreal. The latter is an expressive cuvée with Cabernet Sauvignon as the flagship grape variety.
The wines stand out for their elegance, complexity, and long aging potential, reflecting the unique South African terroir.
Translation missing: en.Tasting notes
In the glass a deep, dark ruby red with developing maturity. On the nose, intense aromas of ripe plum and dark fruits, accompanied by spicy notes such as clove and licorice and a hint of pepper. Maturation in French oak gives the wine additional depth and a fine, warm spiciness. On the palate, powerful and full-bodied with dense, juicy fruit and a clear structure. The tannins are soft and supple, yet present enough to give the wine backbone and length. Spicy and fruity elements intertwine harmoniously, creating an intense yet balanced overall impression. The finish is long, slightly savory and marked by persistent notes of dark fruit, spices and licorice.

Shiraz
Shiraz, also known internationally as Syrah, is a dark grape varietythat produces powerful and spicy, fruit-driven red wines In the glass, Shiraz wines often display a deep, dark colour and show pronounced structure on the palate. Typical aromas range from dark berries such as Blackberry and black cherry to pepper, cloves, smoke and notes of leather or Chocolate.
The wines are often characterised by firm tannins and moderate to good acidity, giving them excellent ageing potential. Stylistically, they vary depending on their origin: while the New World (Australia, South Africa) often favours more opulent, fruit-driven interpretations, wines from the Northern Rhône (France) are generally more elegant and peppery.
Shiraz is a versatile accompaniment to rich dishes such as grilled foods, game or spicy stews.
