Project Z Heritage White Blend

Shellfish, Lean fish, Mild and soft cheese

A wine combining creativity with Cape viticultural legacy, this Heritage White Blend brings together three grape varieties from two distinctly different regions. Palomino (70%) from Piekenierskloof in Citrusdal leads the composition, with Chenin Blanc (20%) and Alvarinho (10%) originating from Stellenbosch vineyards.

Various portions were subjected to skin-contact as well as fermentation and aging in old oak barrels and clay amphorae, allowing the three grape varieties to form a textured, complex whole in a gorgeously complete wine.

Kleine Zalze wines are marked by a classical structure and complexity matched by a vibrant flavour intensity. Discernibly South African in style, they are refreshing, beautifully balanced and well-suited to food. Our wines are made according to traditional methods with minimal cellar intervention, but supported by modern equipment.
