The Foundry
The Foundry Wine Collection was established on a shoestring budget in 2001 by Chris Williams and his great friend James Reid. With plenty of blood, sweat and tears, developing The Foundry into a leading exponent of the New South Africa wine revolution, gaining numerous accolades and awards for their site specific, terroir defined wines. The first vintage of The Foundry was vinified at the Myburghs of Joostenburg winery in Paarl. There was no room for our barrels in their barrel room, and so we were accommodated in the old blacksmiths’ workshop – and ‘The Foundry’ was born.
Description
The Foundry Roussanne 2016 has distinctive and intense aromas of wild flowers, oatmeal and lemon-cream. The palate is lively and intense with quince and yellow apple flavours, hints of spice and linear acidity. Typical varietal texture rounds out the palate before persistent length and clean finish.
Food Pairing
The most mature, characterful cheese you can find! OR- Asian duck with soy and kimchi
