Simonsig
Simonsig Wine Estate is synonymous with the history of the South African wine industry, the Stellenbosch wine region, and the Malan family name. These elements are intertwined in this family-owned farm, where the late Frans Malan produced the first bottle of our much-loved Kaapse Vonkel, South Africaʼs first Méthode Cap Classique made in the classic bottle-fermented style. He is also honoured for co-founding the thriving Stellenbosch Wine Route, a first in its time. Today, his legacy lives on through his sons, Francois and Johan, and grandchildren Francois-Jacques, Christelle and Michael, the 2nd and 3rd Malan generations at Simonsig Wine Estate.
Description
Alluring nose with a perfume of black currant mixed with a sweet spice and cedar wood. Seamless tannins wash over the palate that shows big fruit concentration. Fresh flavours of black cherries, red berries and cassis followed by an underlying support of vanilla pod and toasted oak.
Food Pairing
Pairs well with Cape Malay bobotie, seared tuna, slow roasted belly of pork, oven roasted rack of lamb, stuffed aubergines or grilled mushroom sosaties.
