DeMorgenzon
A hidden garden vineyard deep in the Stellenbosch Kloof, with sweeping views across False Bay to Cape Town, lies DeMorgenzon - a name derived from Dutch origin for “the morning sun.” From its hilltop manor, this prestigious and graceful family estate is home to Wendy and Hylton Appelbaum. Classical music drifts through the garden vineyards. The earth has music for those who listen. Viticulturally, DeMorgenzon has predominantly south-facing slopes create a cooler microclimate in an otherwise warm region. This allows for the production of finely poised, ethereal Chenin Blanc and Chardonnay, as well as sophisticated, highly aromatic Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon. In keeping with their vinous philosophy, the estate is farmed regeneratively, fostering biodiversity and soil vitality to create a balanced, living ecosystem in the vineyards.
Description
The bouquet is bountiful, showcasing floral notes complemented by red fruit nuances and subtle earthiness. The palate is juicy, offering flavors of cherry and strawberries balanced with elements of fresh herbs and a slight flintiness, providing complexity and structure.
Food Pairing
This Grenache Noir pairs well with beef, lamb, poultry, and spicy foods, complementing its red fruit flavors and herbal notes.
