The wine region of Wellington

South African Cape Winelands district 60 km from Cape Town: Shiraz signature king red — concentrated and powerful with notes of blackberry, plum, black cherry, pepper, Mediterranean spices and smoky touch, firm tannins and velvety finish. Dense Cabernet Sauvignon and emblematic Pinotage (cherry, blackberry, coffee, smoke). Chenin Blanc and Viognier as fresh floral whites. WO, hot Mediterranean climate with mild winters, varied terroirs at the foot of the Hawekwa mountains, old vines.


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: Bleeding

Old practice for red wines. As soon as the vat is filled with grapes, the tap is opened. A sweet but clear juice escapes from the vat (it can also be used to make rosé). The colour and density of the juice is enhanced, but it should not be overdone. Rarely more than 10% of the volume of a vat, otherwise you risk losing fruit and bringing in bitterness.
