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
The pink of dawn, soft and inviting, the scent of sea-shells and white sand. The tide rolls in bringing with it rose-hips, watermelon, sour-cherries, raspberries. The clean, cool red fruit is zested with enlivening citrus, curls of orange peel, lemongrass, and hint of fresh fynbos honey. A voluminous, mouth-coating mousse washes across the palate, revealing a strawberry core. Saline acidity threads through, trailing tiny pearls, receding to tangy pomegranate and pink grapefruit, for a pithy, refreshing finish.
Food Pairing
Pair this wine with matured brie cheese and fresh melon wrapped in thin layers of prosciutto. West Coast mussels, Red Thai curry or honey nougat with roasted almonds and berries.
