Bellingham
Bellingham is a historic Franschhoek wine name dating back to 1693, with a legacy of Cape firsts including rosé and single-varietal Shiraz. Today, the range draws from selected Western Cape vineyards to produce contemporary South African wines with structure, regional character and broad everyday appeal.
Description
The wine exhibits vibrant red fruit and spice, with a subtle hint of blackcurrant. Partial whole-bunch fermentation lends a "garrigue-like" character, complemented by a distinct South African fynbos twist. Delicate fruit, spice, and herbal nuances harmonise beautifully, leaving a lingering brightness. Its chalky, well-integrated tannins make it an excellent companion to food, yet equally enjoyable on its own.
Food Pairing
This wine is particularly recommended with full flavoured dishes like roast venison, aged fillet and rump steaks, spicy sausages, or confit of duck.
