Tasting Notes

"We had lovely moderate temperatures during the ripening season, punctuated by regular rain. The Chenin blanc in particular starting developing beautiful dry noblerot (botrytis) several days before picking. We always have some noble rot in Hemelrand, but the amount and the quality thereof in 2023 separates this vintage from all previous. The nose shows the classic stone fruit and exotic flavours that we expect from Vine Garden, but then there’s dried orange peel and apricot from the noble berries. The palate is full and quite powerful. The usual high acidity carries the whole wine to along, tapered finish." - The Winemaker's notes

Producer spotlight

Alheit Vineyards

Husband-and-wife team Chris and Suzaan Alheit, of Alheit Vineyards, over a short period of time and despite their young age, have attracted celebrity-like status both on home soil and abroad. It all comes down to a collection of white wines that now sit alongside the Cape’s very best, which started with their maiden vintage in 2011, Cartology.
