Intense savoury nose with notes of dried citrus peel, marmalade, brown spice and almond skin. Full flavoured and textural on the palate with flavours of apricot kernel and fruit peel followed by a fine bitter orange finish.

DaschBosch crafts elegant and experimental wines whilst upholding traditional methods of wine-making and craftsmanship. Their wines reflect the vastness of the South African landscape and reflect the decades of vines growing in one place.

The grapes are hand picked early in the morning from 15 year old vines in Breedekloof.

The grapes are sorted, de-stemmed and crushed. Fermentation starts with juice still on the skins, where after the wine was left on the grape skins for a further 6 months. The clear wine was then racked, blended and bottled.

The wine pairs well with bolder, fuller dishes like Moroccan curries and rich stews, but will also highlight the umami factor in most modern Asian dishes.
