Koelfontein
Koelfontein Estate is not unlike other farms in the Boland valley of the Warm Bokkeveld. It shares the same climate and fertile soil that established the Ceres region as one of the most important deciduous fruit growing regions in South Africa. Koelfontein has been the proud heritage of seven generations of the Conradie Family. Every person who has been fortunate enough to lay down roots on this farm is grateful for the life its soil has bestowed upon them and their families. This is the legacy of Koelfontein farm, one which continues to sustain the lives of all who toil here in the Ceres valley to ultimately bring its bounty to other families far and wide.
Description
The nose of the wine is rich and layered with white and yellow fruits, lemon zest, pungent florals and delicate wood spice notes. Rich fruits and butterscotch on the palate are offset by bright, almost saline acidity and toasty oak. Overall the wine is rich but beautifully balanced and more-ish.
Food Pairing
Green asparagus risotto with Parmesan, or butter-roasted chicken with thyme & garlic, or sautéed pork chops & honey mustard sauce.
