Morgenster
Under the foothills of the majestic Helderberg Mountain in Somerset West, lies Morgenster Estate. Home to award-winning Bordeaux-style wines, small pockets of Italian varieties, and extra virgin olive oils. A pioneering South African estate meticulously cultivated by our Italian father, grandfather and founder, Giulio Bertrand. Where African soil meets Italian flair. His vigour and passion have inspired us to keep innovating with renewed energy and to push Morgenster into a brand-new era of excellence. Sustainably-focused, world-class, remarkable wines and extra-virgin olive oils. Our Estate, it’s part of us. The Bertrand Family
Description
On the nose: The bouquet is reminiscence of brighter red fruit with plum notes offering a balance between fruit and savoury characteristics. On the palate: Elegant and medium-bodied. The palate is sumptuously smooth with fine integrated tannins that add an extra dimension to a very fruit driven experience. Bright acidity carries the wine through to a refined, fruit driven finish. Hints of spice add depth, while the texture remains supple and precise.
Food Pairing
Cabernet Franc’s liveliness makes it an excellent food partner. Friendly, inviting and accessible, it pairs wonderfully well with red meat dishes, roasted lamb cutlets and greens or a lemon and herd chicken with mielie pap and smoor. The hint of spice will also pair beautifully with dark chocolate desserts.
