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
A blend of reductively made Roussanne and oxidatively vinified Chenin Blanc (14%). Citrus blossom fragrance with ripe yellow apple aromas and hints of sorrel. Palate entry is crisp with zesty natural acidity. Understated spiciness adds to the depth of flavour on the mid palate and a delightful minerality results in an intriguing twist on the finish.
Food Pairing
It pairs exceptionally well with seafood.
