Bergsig Estate

Bergsig Estate liegt im Tal des Breede River gut 100 Kilometer östlich von Kapstadt und befindet sich bereits in sechster Generation im Besitz der gastfreundlichen Winzerfamilie Lategan. Ihr jüngster Spross De Wet Lategan hat es sich auf die Fahnen geschrieben, die Gewächse des Estates nicht nur besonders gut, sondern noch jederzeit erschwinglich zu machen. „De Wet macht eine bewundernswerte Serie von wirklich preiswerten Weinen, die von Jahrgang zu Jahrgang noch besser werden“, bescheinigt ihm Südafrikas bedeutendster Weinkritiker John Platter. Und in der Tat dürfte es ausgesprochen schwierig sein, derart gute südafrikanische Estate-Weine zu günstigeren Preisen zu bekommen.

Product recommendation

Allesverloren Chenin Blanc
The grapes for the Allesverloren Chenin Blanc come from vineyards that are located more than 300 metres above sea level. The vineyards are exposed to the northwest and southeast, thus benefitting from optimal sunshine and giving the wine its special complexity and an enormous fullness. The wine has a clear, brilliant colour with light green glints. On the nose, it offers very fine nuances of coal, complemented by aromas of juicy apples and hints of lime.The Allesverloren Chenin Blanc is well-balanced, with restrained acidity. Nevertheless, it is lively, fresh and soft on the palate. The ripe notes of stone fruit particularly underscore this taste experience. We recommend serving this wine with light chicken dishes, summer salads or seafood.

The palate boasts hints of honey comb, pineapple and vanilla, while the finish is crisp with a well-balanced acidity. Enjoy this wine with dishes such as Cape Malay bobotie, chicken curry or fragrant cheeses.

Spier Signature Chenin Blanc
This chenin blanc is made from young vines of five years old, which are perfect for a delicious and refreshing dry wine, with lots of fruit. Only when the stakes get older, the wines get more concentration. By keeping the proceeds low, the wine gets a really nice solid and mineral character. Like the other wines in this series he gets after a fermentation process at low temperature aged for a few months on the yeast cells, which makes it nicely rich and firm of character. A delicious, smooth and crisp Chenin Blanc is the result.
