Anysbos Disdit 2024 is a masterful Cape White Blend that captures the rugged beauty and shale-rich soils of the Bot River region. This specific vintage highlights the exceptional skill of winemaker Marelise Niemann. She crafts a wine with remarkable precision, blending Chenin Blanc, Grenache Blanc, Marsanne, and Roussanne into a harmonious and vibrant profile. The nose offers an alluring bouquet of honey blossom, fynbos, and dried herbs, layered over notes of white peach and citrus. You will notice a distinct saline minerality on the palate that reflects the ancient Bokkeveld shale of the estate. This wine displays incredible tension and energy, moving from a textured, creamy entry to a dry, pithy finish. Anysbos Disdit stands as a benchmark for South African white blends, offering both immediate pleasure and significant aging potential.

This robust white blend pairs beautifully with rich, flavorful dishes. You should serve it alongside seared pork belly, oily fish, or creamy aromatic curries. Its vibrant acidity cuts through fat, while its weighted texture complements umami-heavy Asian cuisine. For the best experience, serve slightly chilled at 12°C.
