Journeys End
In 1995 the Gabb family (originally from Shropshire UK) took control of this picturesque wine farm surrounded by 20 ha of gorgeous vineyards. They have invested heavily in both the vineyards and the winery since then – with the estate growing to 120ha by July 2011. The initial Journey’s End investment was made by Roger Gabb who at that time was Founder and Managing Director of Western Wines. Following the sale of Western Wines to Constellation brands in 2006 the family turned their focus to their estate Journey’s End. Upon taking the helm in 2007 Roger’s son Rollo has since invested further into the estate through vineyard purchases and infrastructure.
Description
The Ad Infinitum is a passion project in appreciation of all things white Bordeaux, lime in colour and exhibiting pronounced green fig, kiwifruit, lemongrass, and Cape gooseberry. The palate is full, rich, and round with apparent salinity and granite minerality. Light oak toasting allows for absolute freshness and fruit expression while adding body and weight.
Food Pairing
Pairs beautifully with grilled seafood, oysters, roast chicken and fresh goat’s cheese. The wine’s combination of freshness and texture also complements shellfish, Mediterranean cuisine and herb-driven dishes.
