Wine of Origin Cape West Coast

This wine, with its pale straw hue, boasts intricate layers that promise to develop both in the glass and over time in the bottle. It represents the culmination of meticulous vineyard care, resulting in extraordinary fruit concentration and intensified flavours. Each vineyard parcel is carefully tended to ensure optimal ripeness and flavour development, with grapes harvested separately to capture their individual characteristics, leading to pristine aromas and a truly unique vineyard selection.

Tasting Notes: Crisp pineapple, fresh apricot, sea kelp and a subtle creamy depth derived from prolonged lees contact and oak influence. It’s a wine of intricate layers, promising development in the glass.

About the Wine Estate

Charles has been at De Grendel since the very beginning of winemaking on the Durbanville farm in 2005, when Sir David Graaff lured him away from Graham Beck with an irresistible offer to head up winemaking, and to design and build his own cellar. Charles is a lifelong student of wine and, even after more than 30 years’ experience in the industry and multiple local and international accolades, he remains always curious to learn more on his winemaking journey. His other passion is helping young winemakers on their own journeys, and he has mentored more CWG protégés than any other guild member. Charles has been involved in all facets of winemaking in South Africa and has extended his learning by working two vintages overseas, one in France and one in California, as well as regular study tours to other winemaking countries. He has served the industry as a board member of the CWG and various producer associations such as the Shiraz, Sauvignon Blanc and Pinotage Associations
