Tasting Notes
Expressive
tropical aromas tinged with capsicum open up to
attractive Cape gooseberry, passionate fruit and green fig flavours balanced
by a lively but gentle coated acidity that follows through to a beautiful
fresh finish.
History
The
wine estate was built in 1920 and by 1947 the wine cellar was completed and a
group of local farmers starting making wines under the Franschhoek Cellar
name. In 2008, a return to private ownership saw Franschhoek Cellar
move back to its roots in celebrating its heritage and focusing on creating
varietal wines that reflect our unique South African terroir. Franschhoek is
one of the truly great wine & food destinations in South Africa.
Regional Information
Fruit is sourced from only the best vineyards and growers, from the best-suited regions for each variety to create distinctive fruit-driven wines. By selecting and sourcing grapes from the broad boundaries of the Cape winelands, we achieve consistent, high quality standards, vintage after vintage.

Vinification Details
Made in
a reductive style excluding exposure to oxygen at all
stages to diminish any loss of inherent grape aromas and flavours, with
gentle prolonged cold fermentation in stainless steel tanks to ensure
expressive fruit aromas. 4 months' lees contact encouraged richness and
complexity on the palate.
