Oldenburg Vineyards
At Oldenburg Vineyards we believe that great wines can only come from the best quality grapes. Our intervention in the vineyards is minimal to reflect the full potential of our mountain terroir. The Oldenburg Vineyards Series is a true expression of terroir through our range of single cultivar wines. The confluence of the 8 Natural Elements that determine our unique terroir is explored through these wines and their real sense of place. The 8 elements are depicted on the intricate Oldenburg Vineyards Series label design. Wines made in an uncompromising manner intending to showcase the finest characteristics of each cultivar.
Description
The wine shows a deep purple colour in the glass. A heady combination of cocoa, dark chocolate, rhubarb, cardamom and tobacco leaf on the nose. The palate displays a plethora of savoury characteristics, including pine nuts, coffee beans and chilli flakes. The wood integration is exceptional, expressing waves of vanilla and sandalwood that builds into a long, lingering finish. A beautiful, chalky tannin and a balanced acidity make for a brilliant wine.
Food Pairing
Rack of Karoo lamb, puree, dauphine potatoes & natural jus.
