The wine region of Plettenberg Bay
South Africa's youngest and smallest wine region (Cape South Coast district, ~57 coastal km east), moderate maritime climate sheltered by Tsitsikamma and Langkloof, alkaline low-sulphite soils. Sauvignon Blanc is the white king: pure and taut with citrus, fresh herbs and vibrant maritime minerality. Elegant Chardonnay with white fruits and Pinot Noir with fine red fruits, plus sparkling MCC méthode champenoise. First vines planted in 2000, pioneering family wineries.
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: Shipping (liquor)
In champagne and wines made according to the traditional method, wine is added before corking to fill the void in the bottle created by disgorging. This added wine is often sweetened by sugar incorporated in variable proportions according to the style of wine sought (see dosage). Syn.: liqueur de dosage.
