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 shows a beautiful floral note of rose petals, followed closely by fruit forward nuances of ripe cherry, strawberry and black currant notes. There is also an attractive carbonic note to the wine which lifts the fruit profile. Undertones of forest floor, leather and cedar spice round off the aromatic complexity of this wine. The wine has great natural acidity, typical of the 2021 vintage. The palate is fresh, inviting and well-integrated. It has a medium body with a lingering finish.
Food Pairing
Enjoyed with game meat, curry dishes, or with a creamy wild mushroom risotto.
