Kaapzicht
Kaapzicht is a fourth-generation Stellenbosch family estate based in the Bottelary Hills. With a strong focus on Chenin Blanc and Pinotage, the Steytler family produces a range of South African wines that showcase old-vine fruit, Bottelary character and a long-standing commitment to family winemaking.
Description
From 72-year-old vines, the aromatics are super complex and spicy with lovely nuances of wet straw, dusty white citrus, honeyed yellow peaches, fynbos and sweet pineapple confit. There is such focused depth, full-bodied plump texture and complexity with fabulous nuances of tangerine peel, naartjie pulp, lychee concentrate and a honey bonbon intensity. A super impressive wine with power, breadth and weight but balancing harmonious acidity. The true personification of delicious old vine Chenin Blanc statesmanship. World-class from every angle.
Food Pairing
