De Morgenzon

This vintage displays an alluring bouquet of ripe yellow peach, apricot and orange blossom, layered with notes of citrus peel, honeycomb, and fynbos nuances. The palate is generous yet finely poised, combining richness and texture with remarkable freshness. Flavours of stonefruit, preserved lemon and pear unfold across the palate, culminating in a long, layered finish marked by subtle spice and mineral tension.

Vertical shoot positioned vineyards allow for optimum ripening and ideal sunlight exposure of fruit. There is a good exposure of slopes to cooling southern breezes off False Bay. Vineyards are established on slopes with soils of weathered granite and sandstone. Yields are controlled to between 7 and 8 tons per hectare. A mild yet wet winter ensured optimal soil conditions as we moved into the growing season. The relatively cool spring, interspersed with occasional rain, led to delayed bud break and, in some isolated cases, uneven flowering. However, the warm weather in January helped to alleviate this early season unevenness. The continued moderate weather throughout the season allowed the harvest to progress at an even pace, enabling our winery team to give the utmost attention to each parcel of grapes arriving at the winery.

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.
