Survivor Wines
Travelling through the Swartland on the back of a truck, heading towards an auction, a Nguni cow knew a beautiful vineyard when she saw one and jumped off. She was appropriately named Survivor when the grower found her grazing in his vineyard. Pierre Wahl excels at creating powerful and elegant wines, choosing to showcase the cultivar’s fruit characteristics, embraced by an old-world elegance in structure and texture. A masterfully crafted fine wine brand that speaks to inner strength, roots, character and refined taste.
Description
Rich green-gold colour with flakes of olive.The fragrance of dusty lemon and lanolin, dried herbs and freshly picked dewy lemon leaves leap from the glass. The palate is finely textured with creamy orchard fruit, underpinned by subtle vanilla oak. Lush and bright with great palate weight, rounded and harmonious with a dry, lingering preserved lemon and spice finish. Beautifully balanced and focussed – a Chenin triumph!
Food Pairing
Lobster,Turkey with Cranberry Sauce, Roast Butternut Squash or Brie.
