Description
Vredendal area, about 35km from the ocean. This classic expression of Colombar offers a vibrant nose of crisp white peach and pear, with a refreshing saline, salty finish that reflects the coastal terroir. Whole bunch pressed and naturally fermented in 3rd-fill French oak barrels, the wine spent a year on the lees, developing a luxurious body and striking purity. With minimal intervention and no additives except for a touch of sulphites, this wine has the potential to age gracefully for 30+ years. It’s an incredibly versatile wine that pairs beautifully with a wide range of cuisines.
Producer Profile
Ian Naudé’s wines are unlike anything else.
His range of wines are made up of esoteric pockets of old and new vines that tell a story about South African heritage. He did so fearlessly, believing that South African wine, if made honestly, and without compromise can come to rival the finest wines in the world. And slowly the international wine cognoscenti have started believing it too, as demonstrated by their rave reviews year-on-year.
