Afrikaans - 'Vol. VI Chenin Blanc / Chardonnay' Blend, Stellenbosch / Piekenierskloof - 2023 - 80% Chenin Blanc | 20% Chardonnay
Grapes are sourced from Stellenbosch producers in Devon Valley and Polkadraai, as well as from the Piekenierskloof. In Stellenbosch, the cooling influence of the south-easter and proximity to the ocean maintain fresh acidity. In the Piekenierskloof, old vines and sandy soils bring intensity and perfume to the wine. Chenin Blanc and Chardonnay grapes are whole bunch pressed. The must undergoes a slow, cool fermentation process in a combination of vessels, including new and seasoned oak barrels. After fermentation, the wine is matured on the fine lees for 6 months for texture and mouthfeel. 15% new oak is used.
Le Riche - Cabernet Sauvignon, Stellenbosch - 2022
Critic tasting note: (2017 vintage) "Vibrant scents of pressed violet and iris lead the surprisingly floral nose of this red. Additional hints of blueberry and raspberry lend a fruity suppleness to the bouquet and follow through to the smooth, satiny palate alongside the faintest hint of earthy spice. The mouthfeel is bright and alive, with a thread of acidity that lifts the mouthfeel and offers verve through the fruit-fueled finish. Lauren Buzzeo" - 90/100, Wine Enthusiast
Rijk's Cellar - Private Cellar Pinotage, Tulbagh - 2020
This deep coloured, medium bodied Pinotage has a complex nose of mulberry, ripe cherries and plum. These red fruit aromas carry through onto a rich palate, supported by a good concentration of tannin and well-integrated oak, which lends subtle wood spice that compliments the fruit.
