The wine region of Wellington

South African Cape Winelands district 60 km from Cape Town: Shiraz signature king red — concentrated and powerful with notes of blackberry, plum, black cherry, pepper, Mediterranean spices and smoky touch, firm tannins and velvety finish. Dense Cabernet Sauvignon and emblematic Pinotage (cherry, blackberry, coffee, smoke). Chenin Blanc and Viognier as fresh floral whites. WO, hot Mediterranean climate with mild winters, varied terroirs at the foot of the Hawekwa mountains, old vines.


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: Tanin

A natural compound contained in the skin of the grape, the seed or the woody part of the bunch, the stalk. The maceration of red wines allows the extraction of tannins, which give the texture, the solidity and also the mellowness when the tannins are "ripe". The winemaker seeks above all to extract the tannins from the skin, the ripest and most noble. The tannins of the seed or stalk, which are "greener", especially in average years, give the wine hardness and astringency. The wines of Bordeaux (based on Cabernet and Merlot) are full of tannins, those of Burgundy much less so, with Pinot Noir containing little.
