Welmoed Merlot Stellenbosch RSA
Description: Located in Stellenbosch, the farm of Welmoed was first granted to Governor Simon van der Stel in 1690. Over the years, many great wines have been produced in the Welmoed Cellar. Today, Welmoed maintains its proud winemaking tradition and has built up a solid reputation both in the South Africa and selected international markets with Welmoed’s distinctive carefully-crafted approach. Once harvested, the wine is pressed off skins just prior to dryness to preserve fruitiness and softness of tannins. This is followed by a malolactic fermentation after which a part of the wine is matured in French oak barrels. Care from the vineyard to the winery has produced a supple red from South Africa that oozes mulberry and cassis flavours with a silky smooth finish. (12 x 75 cl)
Price: £65.88

Beringer STONE CELLARS Sauvignon Blanc California
Description: When making the Stone Cellars Sauvignon Blanc, Winemaker Mary Sullivan focused on retaining the bright crisp fruit flavors of Sauvignon Blanc and highlighting the wine with subtle undertones of toasty vanilla and rich creamy peaches. In the final blend, Mary chose to complement the green apple and crisp citrus of the Sauvignon Blanc with approximately nine-percent Semillon for depth, complexity, and fullness with slight amounts of Gewürztraminer for a floral and spice notes and Chenin Blanc for a peachy softness. To round out the flavors with toasty, spice nuances, she barrel fermented a portion of the wine in French and American oak barrels for approximately two months. (12 x 75 cl)

Welmoed Sauvignon Blanc Stellenbosch RSA
Description: Winemaker's Tasting Notes Pale straw with lime hue. Intense asparagus, fig and red currant aromas. A rich balanced palate with flavours of fig, passion fruit and fresh asparagus. Lovely long and persistent finish. Maturation Potential Wine may be consumed now or may benefit from longer maturation. Viticulture Notes Although the region exhibits a variety of microclimates, all of the growing areas within the appellation have cool night time temperatures that help to keep grape acids intact. The combination of soil diversity and cool coastal fog enables our fruit to mature slowly for ideal aroma and flavour complexities in our wines. Each one of our vineyards offers distinctive flavours to the wine and every growing season is unique. Yet, the consistency and quality of our grapes is discernible in every vintage with a spellbinding spectrum of layered flavours. The vines are grafted onto R99 rootstocks, have an average yield of 11 tons/ha and have an average age of 11-15 years. (12 x 75 cl)
