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
Imagine a playful medley of vibrant red fruits and spices, where a whisper of blackcurrant adds a mischievous twist. Partial whole-bunch fermentation gifts the wine with a wild, garrigue-like spirit, further spiked by a cheeky South African fynbos flair. A delightful ballet of fruit, spice, and herbal nuances dances on the palate, leaving behind a radiant, lingering glow. Its chalky, well-integrated tannins offer a charming embrace, making it a delightful companion to full-flavoured dishes or a joyful treat on its own.
Food Pairing
Ideal with sumptuous roast venison, aged fillet and rump steaks, spicy sausages, or even a confit of duck, this wine invites you to a whimsical culinary adventure.
