Quest
Vineyards have been shown to possess unique fingerprints in centuries gone by. Every block of vines expresses distinctive characteristics, and the finest winemakers know that viticulture starts in the soil. In 2010 our winemaker began travelling in search of the purest fruit from first growth appellations across the wine regions of the Western Cape. Every new vintage becomes a quest to find the different components to make up the perfect blend that meets the winemaker’s requirements. The pursuit of excellence began in 2011 when Quest aspired to showcase a premium range of iconic French blends, styles and varieties grown and expressed through South African soils.
Description
White ginger flowers open to the wind. Sea-breeze, thatch and a tumble of orchard peaches, the scent of fruit trees in summer. The light deepens to gold on the palate. Rich, gingery, stone fruit unspools; peaches, nectarines in concert with the flesh of yellow plums, apples. An undertow of frangipane tart, roasted almonds and honeyed brioche glides like satin with the fine-beaded, persistent mousse. Tailing to spiced, savoury dryness.
Food Pairing
Pair this wine with luxury foods like oysters from the Garden Route, fine and fresh trout or even spicy Cape Malay dishes from the Bokaap.
