Hermanuspietersfontein
The name originates from the founder of Hermanus Hermanus Pieters who in 1855 helped take a little fisherman’s village and turn it into the town it is today. This name has given them the title of longest Afrikaans name for a cellar in the world. Their wines are just as uniquely named with the HPF brand being the only wine cellar in South Africa to use Afrikaans-only names. The non-serious attitude has also led to a well-loved reputation as a fun and laid-back winery with the owner commenting that “while we don’t take ourselves seriously we’re serious about making good wines”.
Description
The 2017 vintage of Die Arnoldus presents a deep ruby to garnet hue. The nose offers complex aromas of ripe plum, spice, fynbos, and black olive. On the palate, it delivers intensity, purity, and a persistent, lingering finish.
Food Pairing
This Bordeaux-style blend pairs well with rich dishes such as beef, lamb, poultry, and game meats.
