- Description
The 'Hemelrand Vine Garden' is an interesting blend composed of 48% Roussanne, 22% Chardonnay, 27% Chenin Blanc and 3% Verdelho. It opens to pretty aromas of orchard fruits, lime, white florals, orange zest and dusty minerals. On the palate this is fresh with lovely underlying acidity adding vibrancy with orchard fruits and citrus notes continuing to linger as this remains focused through the finish. Overall, this is a gorgeous wine which is already showing beautifully.
This is a slow ripening site, resulting in full flavour and high acidity. This wine exemplifies the push and pull between those two elements. The nose is exotic, the palate is bracing. I can also say with certainty that this is the best vintage for Hemelrand so far. 13.5% alc
