The wine region of Nuy
Ward in the Worcester district (Breede River Valley, Western Cape) in the Nuy Valley at the foot of the Langeberg. Chenin Blanc is the recognised signature white; Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon in reds. Low-rainfall climate irrigated by the private Keerom Dam — the country's largest of its type. Cool winters and springs with periodic snow preserve acidity.
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: Acidic (flavor)
Acidity is present in all wines, and is essential in white wines. It is due to the presence of different organic acids in the wine, and is expressed in the mouth by a sensation of freshness combined with other elements, such as minerality or a note of bitterness. Moderately present, it brings relief and vivacity to the wine.
