Lingen

The Lingen Red Blend pairs well with grilled meats, such as lamb or beef, and dishes featuring mushrooms or game, complementing its rich and aromatic profile.

Sourced from a 1.5-hectare "clos" or walled vineyard located just up the road from Stark-Condé, the site features Vilafonté soils, differing from the Clovelly and Hutton soils on the main estate. This terroir imparts a softer structure and a touch of wild "fynbos" character to the wine.

Matured for 20 months in barrel, with 10% new oak, to enhance its complexity and structure.

The grapes were harvested from a 2-hectare site on a neighboring property farmed under a long-term contract. The wine underwent spontaneous fermentation and was matured for 20 months in barrel, with 10% new oak, to enhance its complexity and structure.

Stark-Condé Wines is located in the picturesque Jonkershoek Valley in Stellenbosch. It is a dramatic valley with steep changes in vineyard elevation from 150 to 600 metres making for a range of sites with distinct characteristics. At Stark-Condé they stick to traditional winemaking methods: open tank fermentation meticulous sorting of grapes hand-punchdowns basket pressing and maturation in small French oak barrels.
