About The Winery:
- In the heart of the Cape wine region lies Neethlingshof Estate, one of South Africa’s oldest wine estates, with a winemaking history dating back to 1692.
- Since 2003, Neethlingshof has implemented an active biodiversity strategy to reduce the monoculture of vineyards.
- The estate cultivates a variety of grapes, including popular ones like Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay, and Chenin Blanc, as well as South African staples such as Pinotage, Gewürztraminer, and Riesling.

- Ripe red apple, blackcurrant, toasted coconut, and candied red cherry aromas, complemented by notes of black forest cake and sweet baking spices.
- Rich and savoury, with flavours of stewed fruits, prunes, dark chocolate, and hints of tobacco and charred wood, finishing with a velvety smoothness.
