Keermont Vineyards, producentens vinside (hentet 18. okt. 2026): 2023 Keermont Vineyards Companion White; 100% Roussanne; alkohol 14%. Producentens noter (engelsk): Om vinen: 200 100% Roussanne 293 bottles The Companion White 2023 is a barrel fermented white wine made originally for the Keermont Terrasse. In 2023, we had a little bit too much Roussanne for the Terrasse blend, so bottled this as our Companion White. Vinification All grapes used in producing our wines are grown on Keermont Vineyards. The farm is situated at the upper reaches of the Blaauwklippen Valley above Stellenbosch. Most of the vineyards grow in deep red clay rich soil derived from sandstone and granite and are surrounded by indigenous mountain vegetation. Small batches of grapes are specifically selected according to ripeness, harvested by hand and vinified separately. White wines are fermented by indigenous yeast in seasoned French oak barrels and then spend a further 12 months maturing on the lees. Tasting Notes Aromatic stone fruit and subtle spice on the nose, palate has hints of apricots and saffron, with fresh and balanced acidity.
