Mount Rozier was founded at the turn of the 19th century by Annie Rozier, a flower merchant. She picked wildflowers in the Schapenberg hills surrounding her family’s homestead and famously, she also produced natural remedies and medicines for the local community. In the 1920s, the Stellebosch-based estate formed part of Myrtle Grove, where the first ever commercial plantings of Pinotage were grown in 1941 by Professor Perold.

Shiraz, also known as Syrah, is a red wine grape variety that is grown in many regions around the world. The grape is known for producing wines with rich, full-bodied, and intense flavors. The wine typically has flavors of dark fruit, such as blackberry and plum, as well as notes of pepper, licorice, and smoke. In warm climates, Shiraz wines can also have a jammy character with high alcohol content.

The wine style can vary depending on where the grape is grown, for example, in Australia, Shiraz wines are typically full-bodied and high in alcohol, with ripe fruit flavors and a relatively high level of oak influence. In the Northern Rhône region of France, the wines tend to be more elegant, with a focus on the grape's natural pepper and meaty notes, and less oak influence. Shiraz pairs well with a variety of hearty and flavorful dishes, especially rich meats such as beef, lamb, and game.
