NV NUY Red Muscadel, Worcester

Muscat

A long standing favourite of ours, this delicious wine is a bit of a cape classic.  Made from late harvested Muscat de Frontignan grapes which are gently crushed then left on their skins for 48 hours before a short fermentation.The wine is then fortified and bottled with the result being a wonderfully fresh, floral stickie taht remains on the correct side of cloying.  Enjoy this versatile dessert wine with a variety of puddings or as a long drink with masses of ice as the locals would.  Terrific value.

2023 The Tin Mine White, Zevenwacht, Stellenbosch

Chenin Blanc

The Zevenwacht Tin Mine White is a stunning blend of Chenin, Chardonnay, Roussanne, Viognier and Semillon, coming from vineyards planted on decomposed granite soils which lie between 200 and 350m above sea level.  Ageing in 500 litre French oak barrels helps add to the wonderful texture without detracting from the impeccably integrated exotic, spicey fruit and lively yet balanced acidity.
