Paul Wallace
Paul and Nicky Wallace purchased their 25-hectare farm in September 2003 and immediately set out to create their own little piece of heaven. Paul is a viticultural consultant and here at last he could practise what he has advised and encouraged other farmers to do in their vineyards. It has long been Paul's belief that the cool-climate region of Elgin, previously best known for its apples and pears, is one of the most exciting developing wine regions within the South African wine industry and indeed internationally.
Description
Bright and appealing. Fruit driven nose lead by heady wafts of granadilla and gooseberry softened by kiwi fruit and pear. An explosion of fruit on the palate which reveals a medley of tropical fruits, granadilla and subtle citrus coupled with a prominent mineral core. The full mouthfeel captures the purity of Elgin’s fruit, resulting in a fresh well-balanced wine with good length. Delightful while young but is expected to show her pedigree and mature with stylish grace and aplomb with further time in the bottle.
Food Pairing
Guaranteed to charm and captivate, she will pair beautifully with summer salads, fresh Cape crayfish, and all manner of seafood. Match her with oysters, mussels, seared tuna, kingklip or salmon. The Little Flirt will compliment roast chicken or pork chops with apple sauce. For dessert serve her with apple crumble. She will certainly enhance your meal and even if sipped as an aperitif will flirt with your senses!
