Groot Phesantekraal
Groot Phesantekraal is a Durbanville wine estate where Atlantic sea breezes meet the warmer inland climate. With a focus on limited-production Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz, Sauvignon Blanc, Chenin Blanc and Pinotage, the estate produces characterful South African wines shaped by its north-eastern Durbanville site.
Description
This wine captivates with its layered complexity and weightless intensity. The nose is vibrant and aromatic, unveiling a medley of green melon, passion fruit, and grapefruit, delicately accented by subtle nuances of white asparagus. On the palate, it offers a harmonious balance of green melon and fig, enhanced by a saline finish that lingers gracefully. A refreshing acidity underscores the wine's freshness, while a whisper of smokiness adds intrigue and depth.
Food Pairing
Fluffy passionfruit sponge cake served with poached pears, white chocolate pastry cream and a vanilla bean ice cream or Crispy Panko crumbed chicken breast served with pickled cucumbers, baby marrow and peas, topped with creamy brie and red onion.
