‘The SAWi awards, established in 2009, aim to give credit to the wines and farms that consistently do well within the local and international arena. All South African wines are evaluated and given a score derived from a multi-phase algorithm to help wine lovers identify consistent excellence.\u00a0A unique \u2018Algorithm of Excellence\u2019 is applied during the competition to measure the performance of individual wines, across multiple vintages. It then compares and condenses the results from more than 100 multinational competitions, reviews and listings, acknowledging the nature of the competition and any additional accolades bestowed on a wine, and expresses this as a single value out of 100<\/em>‘, informs the media release which we received via Waterford Communications.<\/p>\n Saronsberg Full Circle, Shiraz, its Provenance range Cabernet Sauvignon\/Merlot\/Malbec\/Petit Verdot, Provenance Range Shiraz, Viognier, and Brut Sparkling Wine M\u00e9thode Cap Classique are all part of SAWi’s ‘South African Grand Wines Collection’.<\/p>\n Saronsberg winemaker Dewaldt said: ‘These accolades are testimony to the team\u2019s persistence in the pursuit of excellence. \u00a0It also reaffirms that we are on the right path, not only with our hard work and commitment, but also in building our brand and making sure we keep the high standards we have set for ourselves<\/em>‘.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Saronsberg winery from Tulbagh has been named Top Red Wine Producer of the Year, in the 2016 South African Wine Index (SAWi).
