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
On appearance the colour is golden with a light greenish hue. Baked apple crumble on the nose with lifted citrus notes. This is a rich wine, with aromas concentrated by 8 months maturation on lees. The palate reveals layers of varietal Chardonnay flavours. Stone fruits, citrus, delicious acidity and length. All held neatly in check by a long, creamy finish.
Food Pairing
Will pair well with a variety of pasta dishes as well as grilled fish, and mediterranean inspired roast vegetables.
