Typical of Petit Verdot, the layered fruit is what this wine is built on. The gently wooding supports the wine and its full-bodied structure. Its cool-climate pedigree gives firm natural acidity which ensures its ageing potential. The long hanging time gives the wine depth, great tannin structure, and dark, dense colour. Think lively fruit of blackberry, black cherry; offset by earthy, leathery notes.

Almenkerk

Almenkerk Wine Estate is a small family-owned wine estate situated in the Elgin valley just east of Cape Town South Africa. The estate is owned by the Belgian/Dutch van Almenkerk family and run by Natalie and Joris van Almenkerk. Whilst Joris has fun making award-winning wines Natalie is in charge of sales and marketing PR and admin. Patriarch Joep helps out with sales frequent wine tastings and as a mentor on the business side. As well as that we have a dedicated group of family and friends that come over to help us out by opening the tasting room when we are not around or assisting with the harvest. We’d love to welcome you to our estate in the beautiful cool-climate Elgin Valley. Come for a tasting and enjoy the spectacular views across the valley and vineyards whilst we share our story and wines with you.
