Details and technical informations about Winery Woolworths's La Torre White.
Discover the grape variety: Codivarta
Simple, fresh dry whites with a pale golden colour, a supple palate and preserved acidity, showing undemonstrative aromas of white flowers, citrus (lemon) and herbal notes. Very niche, rustic profile. Preserved in a few ampelographic collections, it belongs to ancient varieties of heritage value whose commercial distribution has almost disappeared. Rare, little-documented white variety grown in tiny quantities, studied for its genetic and historical interest.

The wine region of Worcester
South African district in the Breede River Valley (100 km west of Cape Town, sandy rocky soils, ~25% of national production): Chenin Blanc, Colombard and Sauvignon Blanc are the flagship whites — accessible and expressive profile. Shiraz is the flagship red: deep and robust with dark fruits (blackberry, plum, black cherry) and spicy complexity. Pinotage and Cabernet Sauvignon as complements. Nearly half of South Africa's Sémillon and a third of its Ruby Cabernet originate here.
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: Frank
Said of a wine that is open and delivers itself immediately, and whose clarity excludes any defect.
