The wine region of Upper Hemel-en-Aarde Valley
Ward of Walker Bay (Western Cape, South Africa) — the highest-altitude appellation (>15 km from the coast) of the Hemel-en-Aarde complex: Pinot Noir and Chardonnay in Burgundian style among ~20 focused producers. Ancient soils of decomposed granite over rocky clays — a rare geological feature within greater Walker Bay clearly distinguishing it from the lower valley. Cool climate influenced by the cold Benguela current at 34°S, slow ripening.
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: Runoff
Failure of the vine flower to fertilize at the time of flowering, when the weather is too cold or rainy. Under these conditions, the vine will have few or no clusters.
