Wildeberg Franschhoek White 2021

WHAT’S THE STORY?
Wildeberg is our small farm in Franschhoek. Only 10
hectares can be planted to vines, the rest is wild. The fruit
for the Wildeberg wines comes from the Franschhoek
Valley only, hand harvested, naturally-fermented and
gently matured in our mountain barrel hall on the farm.
PRODUCTION
Sourced from ancient bush vines in the Franschhoek
Valley in the south-eastern corner of the Cape’s Coastal
Region. Franschhoek is amongst the oldest planted
regions in the Cape, with Semillon having been planted
here in 1679 by French Huguenot settlers. Naturallyfermented in new and older oak at our Franschhoek farm,
there is very little magic involved other than the fruit itself.
TASTING NOTE
Our first release of a Wildeberg White exemplifies the
magic of Franschhoek. This first release is 100% ancient
bush-vine Semillon aged in new and older oak. The palate
has an impactful attack of tight, bright, highly textural
citrus tang and terrific mouthfeel. It’s a vast wine with
layers of expression.
FOOD MATCH
Ideal with delicate fish dishes, fresh oysters, and prawns
