Simonsig

Simonsig Estate liegt in der weltberühmten Weinregion Stellenbosch, 45 Kilometer östlich von Kapstadt, und bietet einen majestätischen Blick auf den Simonsberg.

Frans Malan, ein Pionier der südafrikanischen Weinindustrie, füllte 1968 die ersten Flaschen der Simonsig-Weine ab. Simonsig Chenin Blanc war der erste Simonsig-Wein, den Malan in dem Jahr präsentierte. Der Beginn einer Erfolgsgeschichte.

Heute führen seine Söhne Pieter, Francois und Johan sowie sein Enkel Francois-Jacques in der 3. und 4. Generation die Weinproduktion bei Simonsig Estate fort. Das Weingut umfasst insgesamt 302 Hektar, von denen 210 bestockt sind. Sandstein, Granitboden und Schiefer bilden die Grundlage für die Simonsig-Weine. Das Weingut gehört zu den wenigen, die ihre Kreationen selbst in Flaschen abfüllen und zudem mit unverwechselbaren Etiketten versehen. Bei den Rebsorten setzt Simonsig im Wesentlichen auf Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinotage, Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz und Pinot Noir.

Product recommendation

Simonsig Cabernet Sauvignon / Shiraz
Vibrant Ruby colour. An aromatic introduction to youthful fruits such as various red berries evokes the taste buds. Peeling through layers of primary fruit a subtle smokiness of fine wood integration completes the palate. Though youthful the tannins are well rounded and smooth ensuring this wine to be a superquaffer show stopper.

Lanzerac Pinotage
The grapes for the Lanzerac Pinotage come from vineyards that are located between 400 and 420 metres above sea level. The prevailing wind cools the grapes in hot summers. The soils consist mainly of decomposed granite, enhancing the vines’ deep growth and improving water retention in the soil. After fermentation in stainless steel tanks with regular pumping over, the Lanzerac Pinotage matured for 15 months in first-, second- and third-fill oak casks.At this point, the optimal integration between fruit and wood was completed, resulting in a wine of excellent colour with fragrances of ripe berries and plums. On the palate, the Lanzerac Pinotage is velvety, dense, full-bodied and complex, showing a lovely balance. Aromas of high-quality chocolate and notes of caramel enhance the taste experience along with wonderfully integrated tannins.Enjoy the Lanzerac Pinotage with venison medallions in plum sauce or Asian curry dishes.

Spier Signature Pinotage
By planting the pinotage grapes in rows in a north-easterly direction the grapes are not in the bright afternoon sun. This prevents them to develop a roasted and spicy aroma. And it helps even more that the sea is near, only 8 kilometer away. By low proceeds of 50 hectoliters per hectare the grapes get lots of intensity and the wine has enough strength and depth to let a part of it mature in wooden barrels. Fermentation at no more than 25 ° C ensures plenty of fruit. 40% of the wine matured in French oak barrels or American origin, making this a pleasant vanilla tasty Pinotage without sacrificing the fruit.
