The wine region of Paarl
South African star at the foot of the granite rock (60 km north of Cape Town): Shiraz reigns in reds — powerful and sun-soaked with notes of blackberry, plum, black pepper, spices and a smoky touch, sturdy tannins. Structured Cabernet and Pinotage complement. Chenin Blanc king of whites — ample and lively with notes of honey, yellow fruit, candied citrus and white flowers, age-worthy acidity. Renowned Rhône-style blends.
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: Rafle (taste of)
A taste considered a defect, characterized by an unpleasant astringency and bitterness, brought by the stalk during the vinification process. In order to avoid it, destemming before vinification is a common practice.
