Pas de Nom
The PAS DE NOM CREATIVE BATCH is an atypical character that was born during unconventional times. It is an all-encompassing package containing the works of many growers from all corners of our industry. Hence the closure reading “#SAVESAWINE”, a campaign created in support and aid of the livelihoods dependent on our South African wine industry.
Description
The 2024 Creative batch is a mixed media tapestry woven with threads of courage and restraint. A good measure of courage to try new techniques and the necessary restraint to maintain the integrity of the fruit. The first encounter is an aromatic explosion of sweet and floral terpenes. These upfront aromas of citrus oil, cardamon- and coriander seeds, as well as hints of rosewater may be a little wacky for your average white, but we went scavenging for them! Behind the veil, layers upon layers of stonefruit and somewhere in the distance - prickly pears and fresh ginger enter too. Lively, pithy and stupendously saline; This vibrant wine is truly one of a kind. And hey, these are just our thoughts and though the power of suggestion is very strong, if you don’t get what we are on about, it doesn’t mean you are wrong! Wine is a sensory experience that is a deeply personal journey guided by your past. So, feel free to reach out and let us know what you think of this glass!
Food Pairing
This versatile wine pairs well with dishes that have bold flavours yet delicate textures, such as seafood, particularly grilled fish, or white meats like chicken. The wine's lively acidity and vibrant aromatics also make it a great match for spicy Asian dishes or creamy pastas.
