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
This is a sophisticated white blend of 58% Marsanne and 42% Roussanne. It displays a bright straw color with a bouquet of citrus blossoms, quince, and nectarine, adding aromatic complexity. On the palate, it reveals flavors of fresh stone fruits, citrus, and a touch of oats and subtle oak. The wine finishes with a chalky minerality and will continue to evolve gracefully over several years.
Food Pairing
This blend pairs excellently with poached lobster, grilled seafood, or rich poultry dishes. It also complements aged cheeses such as Gruyere.
