The Pondokrug Cabernet Franc 2017 is bright red in colour. The nose is a deep, complex and intriguing mix of bright raspberry fruit, cloves, and some typical herbal pyrazine characters. The palate has a gentle entry, but is firm and structured with ripe cherry and blackcurrant flavours with hints of bell pepper. The tight, grainy tannins hold the fruit flavours into a long, succulent and fresh finish. Drink 2022-2035.

Keermont

Agriculture in the Upper Blaauwklippen Valley can be traced back to 1694. In 2003 the Wraith family moved to the Western Cape from Gauteng and bought two adjacent farms. These two farms are now farmed as one Estate known as Keermont Vineyards. 2005 saw the start of a major vineyard planting programme on lands that had been fallow for a number of years. We planted 21Ha over seven years to add to an existing 8Ha of older vineyards. Our official maiden vintage was 2007 and in 2010 a spring water bottling plant on Fleurfontein was converted into a fully functional winery complete with offices tasting room processing facilities and barrel rooms.
