Only the best quality grapes in two different blocks of Gewurztraminer vineyards are used for making the Paul Cluver Gewurztraminer. In the cellar we do not follow a recipe as decisions are made on an ongoing base to ensure that we make the best possible wine in each vintage. This wine has typical litchi flavours with rose petals and honeysuckle on the nose, which carries through to the palate. The mouth feel is rich but not overpowering; it is a more elegant style of wine with a lovely aftertaste and clean finish. (6 x 75 cl)

PaulCluver Cabernet Sauvignon Elgin RSA
Description: Due to the cool climate in Elgin the Cabernet Sauvignon is planted on a Northwest-facing slope, we also used the early ripening 163 clone and the rootstock also enhances earlier ripening. All this is done to ensure that we will get optimal ripeness even in our cooler climate. This wine shows typical Cabernet Sauvignon flavours, lots of blackberry and blackcurrant fruit on the nose and a well-integrated toastiness from the oak. The palate is very complex with hints of cedar wood and nuts with a well-structured body, packed with fruit and the after taste is long and lingering. (6 x 75 cl) Price: £60.59

PaulCluver Riesling Elgin RSA
Description: South Easterly winds often blow cool moist air and many times rain into the Elgin/Grabouw valley. This cool moist weather results into the development of botrytis. Every year we have some botrytis in the Riesling vineyard. This not only allows us to make some great dessert wine, but also adds complexity to our Riesling. This wine shows typical varietal flavours, lots of spice and floral tones is very austere and has the typical Riesling nervousness. The palate is elegant and rich with a long lingering after taste carried by the great acidity of the wine, typical for the varietal. (6 x 75 cl) Price: £48.24

The Sauvignon blanc was left on the skins for a limited time, to extract some more flavour. The juice were settled over two days and fermented with a selected yeast strain known for producing lots of tropical fruit flavours. After fermentation the wine was blended, stabilised and bottled.

PaulCluver SLOWINE Merlot Overberg RSA
Description: A multi-faceted wine with hints of chocolate, violets and ripe raspberry. The palate is packed with soft, juicy dark and red berry fruit and tannins provide a long, lingering finish. Grapes were harvested from 5 year old vineyards at optimum ripeness. Two to three times a day, prior to fermentation the skins were plunged. Once fermentation commenced the must was gently pumped over once or twice a day to keep the fermentation cake moist. After alcoholic fermentation the wine was racked to 3rd and 4th fill barrels for malo-lactic fermentation in barrel. The wine was racked every 4 to 5 months, and then fined with egg white to ensure there is no harsh tannin. After maturing in barrel for 12 (12 x 75 cl) Price: £71.84
