Warming tastes from an arid landscape of dry and sandy hues
Warming tastes from an arid landscape of dry and sandy hues - an array of colours that stimulate the senses. Piketberg, a town located one hour from Cape Town, is a wine-growing gem hidden below a magical mountain range. From its sun-dried lands, these vines pushed through their cracked soils, and whose blended grapes are now breaking new ground!
Get ready for a sassy sip: ripe pear, white peach, sun-drenched hay, and chamomile hit the palate with a bang. This vintage is bolder and sweeter, with yeasty complexity and a zesty lift from gentle acidity.
Francois Haasbroek is, in our opinion, the man who put Waterford Estate on the map and made it the Stellenbosch legend it is today. But he always had a dream of going it alone.So, after clocking out for the day, he’d set off in search of overlooked vineyards—the kind whose grapes would quietly vanish into big blends. Then, while the rest of the world slept, he’d stay up until 3 a.m., coaxing them into something special. A few hours later, he’d be back at Waterford, ready to do it all over again.
