Hamilton Russell Vineyards

Hamilton Russell Vineyards, eines der südlichsten Weingüter in Afrika, liegt im bezaubernden "Hemel-en-Aarde" (Himmel auf Erden)-Tal in der Nähe von Hermanus, einem geschichtsträchtigen Fischerdorf. Durch die maritime Lage profitieren die Reben von den abkühlenden Winden vom nahen Atlantik. Die Temperaturen sind hier mild. Mäßig fruchtbare sowie steinige Böden, die zum großen Teil aus Lehm und Schiefer bestehen, sind kennzeichnend für Hamilton Russell Vineyards.

Anthony Hamilton Russell führt die Weinfarm seit 1991 erfolgreich und bewirtschaftet rund 175 Hektar Fläche. Sein Vater Tim gründete Hamilton Russell Vineyards bereits 1975, als in dieser Region noch fast niemand von Weinbau sprach. Das Weingut ist spezialisiert auf die Herstellung höchst individueller Pinot Noir und Chardonnay, die weithin zu den besten in Südafrika gezählt werden.

Hamilton Russell Pinot Noir
The low-vigour, stony, clay-rich soil, cool maritime mesoclimate, naturally tiny yields of under 30 hl/ha and the philosophy of expressing our terroir in the wines give rise to a certain tightness, tannin line and elevated length to balance the richness and generosity of this Pinot Noir. The Pinot Noir is not overtly fruity, soft and sweet and it generally shows hints of that alluring primal character along with a dark, spicy, complex primary fruit perfume.Suitable for vegans.
