Wildeberg
Wildeberg Wines, a place to which good things come and from which great things flow, is located against the majestic Franschhoek mountain, affectionately called ‘that wild mountain’. Here the barrel hall is busily bubbling away with wild ferments whilst this winery forms the next evolutionary phase.With have sublime accommodation for guests, and a tasting room boasting arguably the most breathtaking scenic views in the hemisphere, Wildeberg is the place to see. If the abiding memory of our wines remains a textural sense of place then we are portraying the Cape as hoped.
Description
We’ve given the first vintage, 2023, a year in bottle to knit together before release, and we are delighted with the result. It is undoubtedly more approachable in its (comparative) youth than its oak-aged sibling, but it hasn’t lost any complexity - it’s just a different thing. An opening pithy lime salvo is followed up with spicy ginger notes, with the bâttonage adding to a generous, mouth-filling texture and nicely complementing the innate refined acidity on offer.
Food Pairing
Ideal with delicate fish dishes, fresh oysters, and prawns.
