Sadie Family Wines
The Sadie Family strives for wines that are fresh flavorsome refined harmonious and balanced and aims to offer drinking pleasure at the highest level of quality at any stage of a wine's life: the wine-drinker's eagerness for a further glass is their measure of achievement! The Sadie's two wines Columella and Palladius originate in the soils in the Swartland region which stretches north of Cape Town between Durbanville and Piketberg inland from the Atlantic Ocean and centered on the town of Malmesbury. Importantly the area has a remarkably stable climate allowing a consistent level of quality each year in subtly different vintage conditions.
Description
From the outset the 2015 just beamed complexity and the wine travels from very mineral and salty aromas to more of your bigger peach skin stone fruit aromas and finally tapers off into a cordial lime and quince edge. The fruit never shows any real aspects of full ripeness even though the grapes were picked at full ripeness. The ageing just preserves more of the fresher aspects and the wine finishes razor sharp on the palate.
Food Pairing
Serve with a richly nutty porcini risotto or thick slice of crispy pork belly.
