Viognier

Set the stage for an unforgettable dinner with a succulent honey-glazed pork loin, served alongside caramelized roasted butternut squash. The natural sweetness of the glaze and squash draws out the Viognier’s delicate honeyed and floral aromas, while its subtle oak provides the perfect structure to meet the richness of the dish. It the sweet and savoury harmony that lingers through every shared story and slow-poured glass.

Rooted in the alluvial, loam-rich soils of the Breedekloof Valley, this singleblock vineyard thrives under a moderate Mediterranean sun. Precision is key; neutron hydrometers guide controlled irrigation, while meticulous canopy management ensures every bunch is bathed in direct light. This careful harmony of technology and nature produces concentrated grapes, capturing the intense fruit flavours synonymous with our unique landscape.

Hand-picked at peak maturity, this Viognier underwent a sophisticated transformation in new 300L barrels. To build its signature complexity, the wine was matured for six months on the fine lees, enhanced by bi-weekly battonage. This dedicated stirring technique coaxes out a rich, textural mouthfeel and structural depth, perfectly marrying the influence of fine oak with the vibrant essence of the fruit.

Du Toitskloof Wines is a Breedekloof producer sourcing most of its grapes from vineyards within 10km of the cellar. With fruit grown across mountain slopes, alluvial soils and rocky sites, the range offers accessible South African wines shaped by regional consistency and everyday table appeal.
