The wine region of Central Orange River

South Africa's northernmost Cape region along the Orange River, hot and dry semi-desert climate, irrigated vineyards on alluvial soils. Chenin Blanc and Colombard are signature king whites — generous profiles with stone fruit, pineapple, white flowers and a honeyed touch, freshness preserved. Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc as fresh complements. Pinotage signature king red with blackberry, plum and a smoky note.


The wine region of Northern Cape

South Africa's most northerly wine region along the Orange River (650 km north of Cape Town, edge of the Kalahari), hot semi-desert climate, river irrigation. Chenin Blanc and Colombard signature whites: full and crisp with citrus, tropical fruits, yellow apple and honey hints, acidity preserved by cool nights. Hanepoot (Muscat) in floral sweet styles. Shiraz, Pinotage and Cabernet in sun-drenched reds.

The word of the wine: Bitter

Normal for certain young red wines rich in tannin, bitterness is in other cases a defect due to a bacterial disease.
