NC- Piekenierskloof Heirloom White

Piekenierskloof Wines is a notable winery located in the Western Cape of South Africa, situated in the picturesque Piekenierskloof region. This area is renowned for its stunning landscapes and favorable climate, which contribute to the production of high-quality wines. The Piekenierskloof region is characterized by its mountainous terrain, with vineyards planted at high altitudes. This elevation offers cooler temperatures, allowing grapes to develop balanced acidity and complex flavors. The region's diverse soil types, including clay and granite, also play a significant role in creating a unique terroir.

This white blend is crafted from Chenin Blanc, Grenache Blanc, and Viognier, each contributing its unique characteristics to the final wine. The winemaking process involves cool fermentation in stainless steel tanks to maintain the freshness and fruit-forward profile. Some portions may be aged in oak barrels, adding complexity and depth while keeping the wine vibrant and lively.

"Complex with layers of tropical fruit, stone fruit, peach and white pears on the palate with notes of citrus. Well balanced acidity, elegant oak with a long lingering finish."
