Hamilton Russell Vineyards
Hamilton Russell Vineyards – one of the most southerly wine Estates in Africa and one of the closest to the sea – pioneered viticulture and winemaking in the beautiful cool maritime Hemel-en-Aarde Valley appellation just behind the old fishing village of Hermanus. The Estate specialises in producing highly individual terroir driven Pinot noir and Chardonnay which are widely regarded as the best in South Africa and among the finest in the New World.
Description
A tight, mineral wine with classic Hamilton Russell Vineyards length and complexity. Prominent pear and lime fruit aromas and flavours are brought beautifully into focus by a tight line of bright natural acid and a long, dry minerality. An elegant, yet textured and intense wine with a strong personality of both place and vintage.
Food Pairing
Flaky White Fish, Olive Oil, Basil, Rocket, Lemon Cream Sauce, Avocado, Prawns, Crayfish.
