Wine in Paarl

Fruit forward and fresh. Typical Chenin Blanc aromas and flavours of baked apple and tropical fruits. There is a chalky character that seems to be typical from these vineyards in most vintages. A dry white wine for any occasion, with or without food.

It may be a bit unusual for a wine farm to make 3 different bottlings of the same variety, but each of our Single Vineyard Shiraz’s have a unique story to tell. At 33°44’ latitude 18°48’ longitude, trigonometric beacon 194 still rises above the ancient metamorphic shale it sits on – soil that has seen ocean beds and explosive volcanic magma – and soil in which our intense dark berries are grown on today.

Glen Carlou uses special water-bent barrels from a cooper in Frnace. These sophisticated barrels impart a light touching of oak and allow the fruit to express itself, producing Glen Carlou’s Classic Chardonnay style.

The use of both French and American oak creates layers of flavours, with the latter contributing sweeter vanilla characters that fill the midpalate.

Natte Valleij's old cape Dutch buildings have been home to quite a few interesting people. One of these was an Italian prisoner of war (P.O.W.) exiled to the Cape during the Second World War. The inscription P.O.W. B.T. 27/12/1943 is the only reminder of his stay. This hand-crafted, limited release Bordeaux-style blend is made in his honour. The wine is traditionally vinified and matured for 36 months in large oak barrels.

To get to that fresh, fruit driven style; whole berry fruit went to press (retaining better fruit character and less oxidation) then a long cold fermentation – three weeks in stainless steel. No extended lees contact and fermented to dryness. No barrel aging.

Suitable for vegans from a Carbon Neutral and Sustainable winery. Klein Babylons Toren is a specially crafted cuvée on the basis of varietal intensity and character.
