Painted Wolf Wines

A beautiful, elegant and rich wine, with aromas and flavours of citrus, and ripe peaches. On the palate crisp acidity is balanced by a creamy and slightly waxy texture, with layers of fruit, and straw providing depth and intensity. The wine has a long, soft and rewarding finish

Grapes were harvested from a certified single vineyard of unirrigated 49- year old heritage vines in the “horse shoe” just above the town of Wellington. The vines grow in Glen rosa soil, a well-drained decomposed granite soil, yellow brown in colour. The vineyard is a certified heritage vineyard under South Africa’s Old Vine Project, designed to preserve the surviving old vineyards of South Africa.
