Cape Rock
Cape Rock Wines is situated between the towns of Vredendal and Klawer 300km north from Cape Town and 30 km inland from Doringbaai on the West Coast of South Africa. We grow a variety of red and white grapes such as Syrah Grenache Mourvèdre Carignan Cabernet Sauvignon Grenache Blanc Roussanne Marsanne Viognier and Colombard. The vineyards are located on a single 11-hectare farm just above the banks of the Olifants river floodplain.
Description
The wine is light in colour and light bodied with a nose dominated by pomegranate and red summer berries such as wild strawberry, raspberries. The tannins are extremely soft and silky smooth. The wine was made to be enjoyed at release, but should improve with age for up to 3 years after.
Food Pairing
It is ideal to be enjoyed slightly chilled on its own or with aromatic foods, pizza, charcuterie and firm cheeses.
