"Uva" means grape, and "Mira" means wonderful, miraculous, or worthy of admiration. Together, the name translates to The Wonderful Grape. A high-altitude, cool-climate red from the Helderberg region of Stellenbosch, South Africa. Intricately perfumed with aromas of wild strawberryred currant, and pressed violets, underpinned by savoury notes of cigar box and cedar spice.  Described as "weightlessly textured" and silky. Expect bright red fruit flavours like cranberry and raspberry balanced by a dry, powdery tannin structure and a distinct stone mineral character on the finish. Matured for 17 months in fine French oak barrels, with 35% being new wood.

The use of the constellation on the label serves as a celestial metaphor for the winemaking process at the estate. The Pulsating Star: The red giant star Mira is famous for its 332-day cycle, during which it waxes and wanes, becoming bright and then fading into obscurity. This cycle is seen as a parallel to the patience and rhythm of nature in the vineyard—from the slow maturation of the grapes to the once-a-year harvest and the eventual "shining" moment when the wine is ready to be tasted.
