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 2023 Posmeester displays a vibrant brick red to purple hue. On the nose, it reveals aromas of red fruits like plum and cherry, along with hints of spice. The palate is smooth and approachable, making it a versatile and easy-drinking red wine, ideal for casual occasions or pairing with food.
Food Pairing
This red blend pairs well with beef, lamb, game meats (like venison), and even rich poultry dishes, enhancing the flavor profile with its smooth tannins and spiced red fruit notes.
