On the palate

The last release of Cinsault, this wine is blessed with immediate charm. A total Sanguine. Easy to love, easier to drink. Old, dry farmed bushvines from four excellent Stellenbosch parcels. 100% whole cluster natural fermentation, maturation in old oak and cement. The colour is pale, the nose is pretty, the palate is sapid yet light.

Alheit Vineyards is a family business started in 2010 by husband and wife team Chris and Suzaan Alheit. They met at Stellenbosch University, fell in love, travelled the world together, got married, then travelled some more. Eventually they settled on Hemelrand farm close to Hermanus and started their project. Our goals are simple. We want to make wines with a clear sense of Cape identity. We want to show that the Cape’s vinous heritage is worth celebrating and protecting. We love old vineyards. We love dry farming. We love bushvines. We think that “ordinary grapes” are in fact wonderful. We believe that great things are possible here in the Cape, and that we are now just scratching the surface of what can be done.
