Saxenburg
Between two mighty oceans on the southern tip of Africa lies the historic Saxenburg Wine Farm. Here memory and the seasons conspire with the cellarmaster’s craft to produce unique wines of consistent and exceptional quality. For centuries wayfarers bound for the East Indies found hospitality and relief at the Fairest Cape. At Saxenburg we extend this tradition and invite you to visit our world.
Description
This wine has an alluring nose with fresh aromas of tangerine, orange peel, and lemon blossoms, complemented by hints of crushed pecan nuts. The palate is well weighted and rich, but with an incredible purity of fruit and a wonderful line of minerality running throughout. The oak is discernible, but very much in the background.
Food Pairing
It will complement most fish dishes or can be enjoyed with lighter meat dishes and creamy pasta.
