Sweet Fortified
NV
WINE OF ORIGIN:
Coastal Region
VITICULTURE:
This non-vintage Sweet Fortified wine pays tribute to this part of the
Cape’s wine history but adds a dashing element of irreverence.
Each year only a small number of bottles are drawn from the barrels,
which are then topped up with fresh wine from a new vintage making
this an ongoing and multi-generational tribute to a magisterial part
of the great South African wine culture.
VINIFICATION:
‘A multi-varietal blend from the 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018
vintages, the different batches picked late and then fortified, the
intention being to incorporate subsequent vintages according to
the solera method. As the grapes fermented, pure grape spirit was
added to arrest the fermentation process and capture the essence
of nectar, honey and natural sugars. Ageing in oak barrels
broadened the wine, giving it power and weight in a cloak of
sweet, delicious elegance.
WINEMAKER’S NOTE:
The nose shows candied orange, dried apricot, caramel, some
nuttiness and spice. The palate is very rich and smooth textured
before a savoury finish.
