Cape Of Good Hope
This is a range created in recognition of the Cape of Good Hope’s vinous heritage which stretches back more than 350 years when the first Governor of the Cape planted grapes. These unique wines are the result of irreplaceable parcels of old vines and site specific terroirs. The labels reflect the grape variety as well as the origin and singular characters behind them.
Description
Gentle appeal of lemon cream, butterscotch, chamomile and oatmeal with a light floral nuance on the nose. Citrus vivacity – lime and lemon – is immediately apparent in the mouth. The wine morphs effortlessly and seamlessly into a rich and creamy macadamia-toned multi-layered mouthful. The vivid acid is beautifully juxtaposed with the integrated oak which, in turn, doesn’t dominate the gently ripe fruit. Complex, structured, fresh and succulent while also broad and long. This is superbly poised, offering immediate drinking pleasure as well as the ability to age with distinction. Elegant and confident throughout. Delightful.
Food Pairing
Fresh raspberry, lemon and white chocolate cupcakes.
