The portion of the earnings from its sales will be allocated to the Elana AfrikaBredenkamp & De Grendel Sommelier Bursary, covering education, training, and mentorship for a chosen aspiring sommelier. The Annabelle Shiraz is a collaboration between media tycoon Elana AfrikaBredenkamp and De Grendel Wine Estate, representing a joint effort to empower aspiring sommeliers from underprivileged backgrounds. The wine itself is a fascinating fusion of flavors, with a rich ruby shade, complex aroma of ripe blackberries, plums, smoky oak, and a hint of black pepper, and a velvety texture with a lasting finish of fruity sweetness and a trace of spice.
