The grapes originate from meticulously selected vineyards in the Stellenbosch and Durbanville areas. Special attention is given to ensure that the grapes are exposed to enough sunlight during the ripening period. This results in full, juicy berries rich in character and flavour.

 

STYLE

Crafted in a vibrant, fruit driven style, Grande Provence Sauvignon Blanc 2018 captures the full tropical fruit spectrum with hints of cut grass on the nose so typical of this variety.

This medium-bodied wine shows an abundance of gooseberries, fig and guava. The palate is concentrated with a zesty acidity and long lingering finish.

 

SERVING SUGGESTION

Enjoy with vegetarian dishes, salads or lightly seasoned seafood or chicken dishes.  This is a lovely food wine, but can also be enjoyed on its own.

    Grande Provence Cabernet Sauvignon
    A ruby red wine that features red berry and plum flavours complemented by traces of mint on the palate.   AWARDS Platinum at the South African Wine Index 2019   WINE OF ORIGIN Franschhoek   VINTAGE 2016   ANALYSIS Alc 14.0 vol % pH  3.41 RS 2.7  g/l TA 5.8 g/l   VINIFICATION The Grapes are harvested from southwest facing vineyards in the Franschhoek valley.  The well-drained, decomposed sandstone soils are ideal for the cultivation of Cabernet Sauvignon.  The winemaker implements appropriate canopy management to achieve berries with deep colour and concentrated fruit flavours. What makes this wine unique is the location of the vineyard next to a row of eucalyptus trees. During summer, the trees suck up all the water from the surrounding soil. High summer temperatures, cause the eucalyptus trees to ‘sweat’ through the leaves, producing a mist that is blown over the vineyard. The fine droplets landing on the grapes, impart the unique minty taste to the wine. This wine was matured in French oak barrels for 24 months. Enjoy now or cellar for 5-8 years.   STYLE Here’s a perfect medium-bodied red wine for sipping by the fireside to ward off the winter chill. The nurturing velvety tannins and elegant finish will wrap you in pure winter comfort. This wine teems with raspberries, cherries, mulberries and plumbs with notes of fruitcake, pencil shavings and tobacco.   SERVING SUGGESTION This plush red wine sips beautifully on its own or enjoy it with hearty roasts, steaks or lamb skewers bedecked in mushroom and rosemary.

    Grande Provence Chardonnay
    An expressive wine with enticing fruity aromas and traces of vanilla and oak.   AWARDS Gold medal at the 2019 Michelangelo International Wine & Spirits Awards Platinum at the South African Wine Index 2019   WINE OF ORIGIN Franschhoek - Paarl   VINTAGE 2018   ANALYSIS Alc        14 vol % pH        3.45 RS         1.9 g/l TA        5.1 g/l   VINIFICATION The Chardonnay grapes come from the Robertsvlei valley in Franschhoek.
