Structured, aromatic whites in dry, sweet and botrytised styles, with a golden to amber robe and a rich, ample palate with fine acidity. Signature aromas of yellow fruits (pear, apricot, quince), honey, soft spices, candied fruits and brioche notes. Grown in Germany (Baden, Palatinate), defining great German whites for ageing. German synonym for Pinot Gris (Grauburgunder), a grey-skinned mutation of Burgundy's Pinot Noir.

The wine region of Stellenbosch

Showcase of the South African vineyard: signature Cabernet Sauvignon as king red — structured and age-worthy with notes of blackcurrant, blackberry, cedar, tobacco and a menthol touch, firm tannins. Emblematic national Pinotage (created 1925) opulent and smoky (blackberry, coffee, leather). Fleshy Shiraz, supple Merlot as complement. Vibrant Chenin Blanc, ample Chardonnay and lively Sauvignon in whites.


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: Gout (wine of)
