More Information

In the cellar

The grapes were harvested by hand in February at sugar levels of 22.4° Balling. After clarification of the juice, inoculation with a selected yeast started the fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks. The fermentation temperature was controlled at around 16-18°C and lasted for 20 days before the wine was racked and readied for bottling. The first bottling of 26 000 bottles took place on 5 April 2023.

In the vineyard

The trellised Gewürztraminer vines, planted in 1988 and grafted onto Richter 99 rootstocks, are established in deep red Tukulu and Oakleaf soils on the southern slopes of the Estate, facing nearby False Bay. Cool aquatic airflow off False Bay rushes through the vineyards, slowing the ripening of the grapes, resulting in more concentrated flavours in the wine.

Cultivar

Gewürztraminer

Food Pairing

An ideal companion to spicy food or curries such as Thai red duck curry with pineapple and lychee or even a simple Waldorf salad. This wine also makes a good partner to desserts such as apple strudel.

About the Wine Estate

Neethlingshof's focus on biodiversity, production integrity and a reduction in pesticide usage extends to the estate's integrated pest management system. The estate harnesses a natural approach by strategically erecting owl posts throughout the vineyards, which attract these nocturnal birds to their vineyards and naturally restore balance to the estate.
