Driefontein
Over the past decade Jasper Raats has built an international reputation for crafting outstanding wines such as Sauvignon and Pinot from the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley but more particularly for his seven years of winemaking efforts in New Zealand. Crafting very individualistic wines “that I like and can make without any restrictions or guidelines” has been a natural progression two years after returning to South Africa.
Description
Lightly tinted and medium bodied, this wine greets you on the nose with aromatic floral notes which follow through onto the palate with ripe strawberries, cherries, sweet spices and soft tannins on the mid palate.
Food Pairing
Works quite well in pairings with stews, braised and roasted meat dishes like beef, lamb, goat, beef, duck.
