The nose is high-energy and exotic. Expect notes of musky apricot, fresh apple, and lime. The palate delivers an attack like stony mineral water. This quickly moves to a mouth-filling texture. You will find tense, tart acidity and great drive. This fine white blend offers a complex mix of fruit, acidity, and savory length.
The wine combines Roussanne, Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc, Verdelho, and Muscat. Grapes are whole-bunch pressed. It is wild fermented and aged in old barrels for 12 months. This meticulous, minimal-intervention process ensures purity. The final product is a near-perfect representation of its distinctive vineyard site. Enjoy this world-class Alheit Hemelrand Vine Garden with seafood or creamy goat’s cheese.
