Villion Wines
Terroir forms the basis of the whole Villion wine range. Villion Family Wines does not limit itself to use fruit only from a specific ward, but uses the strengths of fruit from different wards within the Cape South Coast region. These cool climate, handcrafted wines are made using environmentally friendly and traditional methods which include spontaneous and open top fermentations as well as limited yields and high-altitude sites.
Description
Plethora of pastel fruit dominance on the entry, exploding into an array of red berry fruit aromas, combining plum, raspberry, strawberry, and blueberry. Layered with a spectrum of rooibos, pomegranate and polished leather to complete this delightful maritime origin Syrah. The spontaneous fermentation of whole bunches is captured in a tempting black olive tapenade bouquet while the touch of Viognier adds a perfume of violets. Impressive density of succulent fruit flavours on the palate, with mouthfilling plum and berries. Firm yet rounded texture with fine, lingering, polished tannins. A hint of Mourvedre adds a suggestion of tobacco and dark spice. Focused tension and poise on the finish.
