The wine region of Elgin

South Africa's coolest region on the Hottentots Holland heights (1 hr from Cape Town): Sauvignon Blanc signature as king white — racy and mineral with chiselled notes of citrus, green apple, passion fruit, herbs and a flint touch, signature lively acidity. Elegant tense Pinot Noir as king red (cherry, raspberry, earth, spices) and fresh Chardonnay as complement. WO Cape South Coast, 250-400 m altitude, ocean mists, varied soils (sandstone, granite, shale).


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: Sweet

Wine with a slightly sickening sweetness.
