White wine lovers rejoice - this is a wine for you.
This wine is made from a single vineyard planted in 1997 on Paardeberg Mountain at the Southern end of Swartland. It is dry-farmed, and Johannes has worked to convert it to organic viticulture. Most of the grapes were direct pressed into stainless steel after a quick pre-fermentation oxidation of the juice. The rest was fermented on skins as whole-clusters for two weeks. I small portion of the wine was aged in 300L barrel to add complexity. It is bottled unfined and unfiltered.
What makes it irresistible:
- Bright lemon zest and white peach flavors dance with hints of fresh herbs
- Textural complexity that evolves beautifully from first sip to lingering finish
- The perfect balance of freshness and depth—sunshine captured in liquid form
- Versatile pairing companion for everything from spring salads to grilled seafood
