Iona
Iona is the coolest vineyard in the Cape 420m above sea-level high above the picturesque Elgin Valley. It is surrounded by the Kogelberg Nature Reserve and overlooks the Atlantic Ocean in the South. In a country where cool sites are precious these vineyards are like gold — the grapes ripening up to two months later than other Cape vineyards and in perfect balance.
Description
This wine offers aromas of ripe red cherries, wild strawberries, and fresh herbs. On the palate, it is elegant with flavors of bright red fruits, delicate spice, and a silky texture, supported by a refreshing acidity and subtle tannins.
Food Pairing
Pairs beautifully with duck, mushroom-based dishes, and grilled salmon. Its bright acidity also complements tomato-based sauces.
