    Product description

    Hand-harvested from old vines planted in 1983 in Swartland, on Rhenosterbosrug Farm. The vines are bush-planted in dry land. Stainless steel fermentation, selected yeast (Laffort Vin2000). Lees-aged over three months, clarified, and bottled. Small batch barrel blend for added complexity and richness. Aromas of pear, peach, and citrus lead to a rich palate with hints of white peach, pineapple, and finishing touches of vanilla. Refreshingly crisp, with lingering complexity. Full-bodied, lively acidity, great ageing potential, and a savoury finish.

  • About the producer

    About the producer: Roodekrantz

    Roodekrantz Wines is a small boutique label that crafts fine artisanal wines from selected blocks of old dry land vines with exceptional terroir. South Africa’s ‘Old Vine Project’, which aims to keep rare old-vine fruit away from large commercial blends, saw the Burger and Morkel families release the first Roodekrantz wines in 2015. Committed to preserving these ancient Certified Old Vine Heritage Vineyards, they work closely with their growers, encouraging respectful and sustainable vineyard practices. They source old parcels from Stellenbosch, Paarl, and Swartland, primarily focusing on producing Chenin Blanc. Their wines are made with minimal intervention in the cellar to allow expression of the character of the vineyards. No new oak ensures that the quality of the fruit and terroir shine through in every bottle. Read more
