Restless River
Restless River is in the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley, situated in the Upper Hemel-en-Aarde Valley appellation, with our vineyards at an altitude reaching 1200ft and 5km from the cold South Atlantic ocean. Our appellation is unique with ancient, granite-based, rocky, deep clay soils; extremely rare to the greater Walker Bay area. Daytime temperatures during summer are some of the lowest in the South African winelands. This cool maritime climate and our decomposed granite soils allow us to grow and make lighter, more elegant wine, balanced with texture, length and complexity.
Description
This Pinot Noir exhibits elegant floral and ethereal aromas, with notes of summer pudding and goji berry fruit. The palate is graceful, featuring refined tannins and a balanced structure, making it more immediate and approachable than the Le Luc Pinot Noir.
Food Pairing
This wine pairs well with dishes such as roasted duck, grilled salmon, or mushroom risotto. Its refined tannins and balanced acidity complement a variety of savory and earthy flavors.
