Benguela Cove Wine Estate
Benguela Cove is part of the Benguela Collection, owned and operated by entrepreneur Penny Streeter OBE and her family. At Benguela Cove we champion Penny’s two main causes; sustaining the natural environment and empowering women in business. Benguela Cove Lagoon Wine Estate is a low yield farm, focused on producing premium estate wines. Situated in the Western Cape winelands near Hermanus, South Africa. Our winery is the largest wine producer in the cool-climate Walker Bay region. This unique maritime estate boasts one of the closest vineyards to the sea and the fresh Atlantic Ocean breezes help to produce exceptional fruits which our award-winning winemaker Johann Fourie and his team turn into fine estate wines.
Description
It is nearly impossible not to fall in love with the sumptuous aroma of this wine. Straw gold in colour, elegantly knit aromas of hazelnut, shortbread biscuit, peach and yellow apple lures you in and generously follows through on the palate. Met with a bold acidity, a gentle creaminess also envelops the palate, trailed with citrus zest, nectarine and hints of crème brûlée. The mineral structure cuts through the textured mouthfeel leaving a fresh, clean finish. This wine, packed with character, is best explained as a wine of refined complexity.
Food Pairing
Rich in texture and fruit even meaty dishes will succumb to its complexity. Blue Cheese gnocchi | Pungent washed-rind cheeses | Escargot
