Pinot Gris
MED-BODIED, CITRUS, WILD STRAWBERRY, PEACH FUZZ, ROSE PETAL, USED OAK
Forget that Stellenbosch isn’t exactly known for Pinot Gris: this minimal-intervention, skin-contact wine from Craven Wines allows the beautiful (and oft underappreciated) coppery/dark rose hues of the grape’s skins to shine as they should -- allowing clean red fruit, lively citrus, and pretty floral notes met with delicate, balanced tannins.
WINEMAKING : Fermentation occurs naturally on the skins; no additions other than a small amount of SO2; unfined and unfiltered.

A deliciously fruit-forward and perfumed Pinotage with balanced tannins and subtle hints of spice. De Grendel has the only vineyard in the country that is 350m above sea level and only 7km from the sea, contributing to the unique micro-climate and terroir that shapes its elegant wines.

MED-BODIED, GREEN MELON, PASSION FRUIT, LIME, GRASS, LEES CONTACT, FRENCH OAK
Founded by a group of local Cape Town sommeliers, KFW works with winemakers across the Cape to provide underserved members of the community with access to good, quality wine. 100% Sauv Blanc, ‘Blanc Fumé’ undergoes both oak ageing and 11 months of lees contact, thereby adding just enough weight to balance the vibrant, tangy aromas dominating the palate. Sancerre this is not, but if you’re looking for something that’s multi-layered, delicious, and a little bit outside the box — give Blanc Fumé a shot!

Viognier
FULL-BODIED, HONEY, TANGERINE, CANDIED CITRUS, PINEAPPLE, OAK
Late-ripening Viognier bunches are left on the vine in the cool of autumn and subjected to morning mists from two bodies of water, thereby creating the perfect conditions for noble rot to develop …. and, to ultimately bless us with this gorgeous, layered dessert wine from South Africa. Tangy and quite sweet, but not at all cloying.

Viognier
MED-BODIED, DRY, PEACH, SPICED PEAR, HONEYSUCKLE, ROSE, GINGER, USED OAK
With beautiful floral aromatics, ripe stone fruit flavors, and a creamy palate that’s lifted by a whiff of fresh acidity, it’s not hard to see why this complex, elegant — and yes, completely dry — 100% Viognier has earned itself somewhat of a cult following (just trust us on this one; we know Viognier can be divisive).
Grapes are picked slightly early for maximum freshness; the wine is naturally fermented and matured on the lees in 300L old French oak barrels for 9 months.

Aromas of toasty almond and walnut skin combined with waxy white blossoms and grapefruit zest arise from the glass. On the palate, bright lemon zest intermingle with apple blossom, ripe summer peach and golden delicious apple with a touch of baking spice.

Pinotage
MEDIUM BODIED, RED FRUIT, PURPLE FLOWERS, BRIGHT, USED OAK
A gentle expression of Pinotage that shows the beautiful marriage of Pinot Noir & Cinsault. Aromas of dried savory, mulberry, cassis liqueur and forest floor. On the palate, it is velvety smooth with brightness, delicate hint of smoke and baking cocoa.
