Fuselage Wines
Fuselage Wines is a distinctive South African winery named after the body of an airplane. Based just off the apron of the Diemerskraal airfield, reflecting the owners' passion for both winemaking and aviation. The winery was founded by Danie Morkel, who is also known for his work with Roodekrantz Wines. The brand embraces a unique thematic approach by naming its wines after aviation terms and themes and focussing on Paarl terroir. Most grapes are planted and grown on the property and some special parcels sourced nearby to best reflect the region’s unique qualities and taste.
Description
Fantastic balance between fruit, spice and mouthfeel. You can taste the sunshine turned to wine; the silky-smooth tannin structure is like an iron fist in a velvet glove. Aromas to intrigue and offer more after every sip, inviting a second glass and most likely a third. The palate complements the invitations send to your nose. Elegant and refreshing, layering, lingering and luring you back for more.
Food Pairing
