Vriesenhof
Vriesenhof has a history dating back to the early eighteen century where its south facing slopes are perfectly positioned to produce wines of a fine character. The estate has plantings of Cabernet Sauvignon Cabernet Franc Merlot Pinotage and small block of Pinot Noir. You’ll find it between the Helderberg and Stellenbosch mountains amidst the Paradyskloof Valley. Three ranges of superb wines are produced including the labels of Vriesenhof Talana Hill and Paradyskloof. Jan Boland Coetzee is the wine maker of the estate and he has ensured that the position of each variety is planted in the ideal position.
Description
Fresh, vibrant yellow gold in appearance, suggesting energy and richness. Aromas of citrus blossom, heady summer flowers and subtle wood spice are offset by biscuit-like savoury notes. The palate wraps flavours of creamy lees, citrus acidity and barrel maturation notes into enticing layers of complexity. Succulent stone fruit flavours linger on a well-balanced, persistent finish.
Food Pairing
Salmon, Creamy dishes, pasta
