Wildeberg
Wildeberg is a Franschhoek wine producer set against the mountain slopes of the Cape Winelands. Known for wild ferments, textured wines and a strong sense of place, the range focuses on distinctive South African wines shaped by site, patience and a less conventional cellar approach.
Description
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. Only 900 bottles were made for this first vintage.
Food Pairing
Ideal with delicate fish dishes, fresh oysters, and prawns.
