Grape Varieties:

100% Pinotage

Winemaking Method and Maturation:

The grapes were picked at around 21-22˚ Balling and hand sorted before it was destemmed and crushed. Colour extracting took no longer than 2-3 hours before the juice was left to settle for 48 hours at around 13-14˚ Celsius. The clear juice was drawn off the lees and inoculated with a specific commercial yeast strain. Fermentation was controlled at around 14˚ Celsius and took around 10 days to complete.

Wine Tasting Notes:

On colour
Lanzerac Rosé 2023 presents as a pale salmon-pink, delicate and bright in the glass, with subtle flashes of copper at the rim, reflecting brief skin contact and a youthful vibrancy.

On the nose
The nose is fragrant and nuanced, with pronounced aromas of fresh crushed strawberries, redcurrant, and rose petals. Underlying notes of white blossom and soft perfume mingle with these vivid fruit aromas to create an inviting bouquet.

On the palate
Dry and poised, the palate shows a light body and lively, refreshing acidity that lifts and accentuates the core flavours of ripe redcurrant and wild strawberry. There is an elegant line of floral perfume carried through from the nose, alongside a silky texture and very gentle, chalky finish. The fruit profile is vivid yet soft, making for a graceful and easy-drinking style.

On the whole
A charming, delicately perfumed rosé, full of freshness and poise—perfectly suited to Singapore’s warm, tropical climate and ideal for relaxed gatherings and outdoor dining.

Enjoy this wine with a fresh fruit coulis, a prawn, mango and avocado salad or with refreshing watermelon, feta and blackberry skewers.

1655: THE FIRST VINE PLANTINGS South Africa has been making wines for a long time - The Longest time, in fact, in modern history and when compared to all the "New World" wine countries. The first record of wine production in South Africa was in 1655 during the time when the East India company set up a colonial base in South Africa. Then, Jan van Riebeeck, the first Commander of the Cape colony, brought along a vine with him and made a vineyard with that planting.
1695: THE FIRST WINES 4 years after planting the first vines, the farmers harvested the grapes and made wine. However, the Dutch didn't know much about wines nor of wine making, and the local farmers weren't particularly skilled at farming the grapes, nor making the wines, so the quality of the wines then weren't impressive. This all changed when the French Huguenots, Protestants fleeing religious prosecution in Franch fled to South Africa and brought along their wine culture and knowledge. In the year 1679, Van Riebeeck was succeeded by Simon van der Stel, who was not only enthusiastic but very knowledgeable about viticulture and winemaking.
STELLENBOSCH TODAY Van der Stel was so successful with his vineyard and as the first Governor of the Cape that his wines became world famous and the cape, as well as it's surrounding mountains were named after him. That's how we have Stellenbosch today, a region that remains well known for its wines, and the Simonberg mountains that form part of the incredible fauna and flora of South Africa today.
