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
In many ways, the 2024 vintage showcases this wine perfectly and demonstrates why these 2 grape varieties partner so harmoniously. Smaller berries produced a very intense and concentrated Malbec portion, brimming with rich, ripe dark-fruit character. The Cabernet Franc provided the perfect foil, with bright cherry fruit and black pepper spice, and the end result is a drinkable blend delivering a powerful wine with the Wildeberg hallmarks of balance and fine, carefully considered acidity.
Food Pairing
Grilled meats, especially lamb and spiced meat dishes.
