Aaldering Vineyards & Wines
The 27 hectare wine estate from the Dutch entrepreneurial couple Marianne & Fons Aaldering, no strangers to the travel catering industry as founders of MarFo and Delta Dailyfood, is located in picture-perfect Stellenbosch South Africa and boasts a unique and special microclimate which results in flourishing vines producing top-quality grapes. Aaldering Vineyards & Wines is very happy to embrace Pinotage at the Aaldering Estate, by virtue of the sense of proud of South Africa and its varietal. The perfect terroir to cultivate top quality fruit and to aim for preserving the intrinsic quality of the grapes into the bottle makes it that Aaldering takes part in the cult revolution of top quality Pinotage wines. The treasure that you will find in Aaldering wine is the dazzling fruit expression, with finesse and elegance.
Description
Colour – Pale golden straw. Nose – Lemon zest and peach blossoms are supported by hazelnut and buttered toast underpinned by a rich minerality. Palate - Full bodied and buttery in character, the opulent mouthfeel is underscored by grippy tannins and an acidity that adds length and liveliness to the finish
Food Pairing
Food pairing - The richness of this oaked Chardonnay pairs brilliantly with the succulent fattiness of seared salmon or tuna.
