Lowerland Wines
We produce small batches of natural wines in a remote, semi-arid, high altitude region of South Africa. Lowerland is a mixed, holistic, family farm that produces a range of soil to soul products in a holistic, integrated flow. Vineyards are certified organic with Ecocert. We collaborate with winemakers who employ natural, Old World techniques such as whole bunch and natural fermentation, basket pressing, manual pump-overs, and gentle maturation in older French oak.
Description
Prominent minerality on the nose, hints of buttery flavours opening up to fresh kiwi & quince. Salinity & crisp stonefruit flavours on the palate followed by dried pear & salted caramel. A full, lengthy palate supported by the distinctively high acidity of colombard.
Food Pairing
Pair with roast chicken, mushroom risotto or fresh abalone.
