The wine region of Simonsberg-Paarl
Ward of the Paarl district (Western Cape, South Africa) on the north-western slopes of the Simonsberg, 50 km from Cape Town. Shiraz is the most-planted variety; Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot in Bordeaux blends with cedar and menthol notes; cooler-climate Pinotage more elegant than Paarl/Stellenbosch. Viognier, Marsanne, Chenin Blanc and Chardonnay in mineral whites from the granitic soils. Distinctive granite outcrops; the elegance here contrasts with the generosity of broader Paarl.
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: Tertiary aromas
Aromas resulting from the aging of the wine in the bottle. The aromas evolve with time, from fresh fruitiness to notes of stewed, candied or dried fruit, to aromas of venison or undergrowth.
