Roodekrantz Wines
We believe wines are made in the vineyard. Careful vineyard selection is therefore key to our results. Very close relationships with growers ensure sustainable vineyard practices and deliver consistent quality in the bottle. The role of the viticulturist is to guide our growers to produce the best possible quality fruit. In the ideal world the role of our winemaking team is to capture the essence of the fruit in the bottle. We do not believe in heavily wooded wines and use of “New Oak”. For us a barrel is largely a very practically designed vessel to facilitate the development of the intrinsic qualities of the grapes. So, it is all about the grape. We have access to some of the finest certified old vineyard blocks (older than 35 years) in the Industry. This segment of our business is becoming particularly interesting and we strive to keep these vineyards in the ground.
Description
Aromatically orchestrated with a blend of tropical and stone fruit notes, this wine unveils a symphonic progression of richness, featuring white peach, delicate pineapple nuances, and citrus interplay, culminating in a nuanced hint of vanilla on the finish. The result is a harmonious and captivating sensory journey.
Food Pairing
Pair with grilled lobster tail or seared sea scallops, enhancing the wine's inherent freshness and delicate fruit notes. Delight in the synergy with creamy pasta dishes, enhancing both the wine's roundness and the dish's richness.
