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
This Sauvignon Blanc (with a hint of Semillon) has a bright green-straw hue and offers aromas of dried apricot, subtle oak, and minerality. On the palate, it is rich and textured, with a layered complexity and a crisp, mineral-driven finish, delivering a harmonious blend of freshness and depth.
Food Pairing
This wine pairs excellently with shellfish, rich fish (like salmon or tuna), and vegetarian dishes due to its fresh acidity and complex structure.
