Citrus with nutty nuances, hints of orange blossom and subtle oak spice on the nose. Rich and structured on the palate with tropical fruit with hints of white flowers, caramel and minerality which linger on the long creamy finish. Ideal with grilled chicken, pan fried salmon or risotto style dishes.
This historic Franschhoek estate was formed out of one of the original farms that was granted to the Huguenots when they settled here, and it was first planted with vines in 1797 when it passed to Paulina De Villiers. The estate nestles against the slopes of the Franschhoek Mountains, close to the Franschhoek River that the old rickety bridge used to cross.
