Klein Amoskuil
Klein Amoskuil, tucked away in the rugged Swartland, is a farm with stories to tell. Once a tobacco farm, now home to natural qvevri wines and certified organic vineyards, it’s all about winemaking with minimal intervention. No irrigation, just dryland, organic farming in the harshest conditions. The wines of Klein Amoskuil embrace a hands-off, back-to-basics approach. In their range of organic wines and natural wines fermented in traditional Georgian qvevri, each bottle of Klein Amoskuil wine reflects the wild spirit of the Swartland—earthy, untamed, and full of character.
Description
A feat for such a variety in the hot Swartland climate, this is the antithesis of Sauvignon Blanc. It has a wonderfully aromatic and energetic style, full of notes of fig, gooseberries, nettles with minerality and crisp acidity. It is bright and refreshing but with a lovely texture, making it more generous on the palate than you might expect.
