The wine region of Breedekloof
WO district in Breede River Valley (Western Cape, ~13,000 ha, 2006): signature Chenin Blanc as white king — Breedekloof is South Africa's leading Chenin producer (15% of national Chenin vineyard, 21% of production), broad profile from crisp vivid fresh with apple, peach and honeyed touches to more textured under oak. Strong diurnal swing preserves acidity, Worcester fault, weathered sandstone and black sandy-silty soils.
The wine region of Western Cape
Cradle of South African wine. Signature Chenin Blanc (Steen, 20%) in ample, fresh whites with notes of quince, yellow apple, honey and acacia flower, from crisp dry to sweet. Sharp, iodised Sauvignon Blanc (Walker Bay, Constantia), balanced Chardonnay. Reds: emblematic Pinotage with roasted aromas (coffee, plum, smoke), firm Cabernet Sauvignon, spicy Syrah.
The word of the wine: Rich
Said of a complex and concentrated wine, whose power suggests a good capacity for ageing.
