Description

Alheit Vineyards signe un vin blanc de Western Cape intense et fruité

The property

Located in the Walker Bay region of South Africa, Alheit Vineyards is a family estate created in 2011 by Chris and Suzaan Alheit. After travelling to the world's greatest wine-producing countries (United States, France, Australia, Germany), this young couple settled in 2010 on Hemelrand Farm, with the ambition of revealing the potential of old South African vineyards of Chenin and Semillon grapes.

Convinced that the quality and beauty of a wine comes exclusively from its vineyard of origin, they focus most of their work on rigorous vineyard management. Their minimalist approach to making white wines aims to capture the pure and authentic expression of these great terroirs with their rare and unique soil mosaic. Over the years, Alheit Vineyards has become one of South Africa's most fascinating estates.

The vineyard

Hereafter Here is a Western Cape wine that stems from young vines on Swartland plots, near Malmesbury, Upper Blaauwklippen and Polkadraai.

The wine

Hereafter Here, "year after year," denotes the passage of time and the nostalgia or hope that that generates.

Winemaking and ageing

Harvested early in the morning, the grapes were rigorously sorted in the vineyards and pressed in whole bunches. The juice was very lightly settled without any addition. Fermentation with indigenous yeasts took place in old barrels of different sizes. Fermentation lasted about two months. Aged on the lees for about twelve months, with a further six months of unfined aging on the lees in vats before bottling.

Blend

Chenin blanc (100%)
