2008 The
Ruins Chardonnay/Viognier, Bon Cap
Bon Cap is a family run
winery lying on the banks of the Breede River in the picturesque valley of
Eilandia. The river is the vein of the vines and together with Red Karoo (Terra
Rossa) and sandy soils, rich in lime, the area is ideal for growing quality
vines. Because of Michelle & Roelf du Preez's vineyarding methods and
scientific use of cover crops to replenish soil, the soil here is rich in
compost, ensuring premium quality wines.
They say
"our footprints
in our vineyards are the best fertilizer and compost we can offer." Their
distinctive vineyards prove that Bon Cap indeed deserves its name - Good Cape.
"Taste the passion, and share the experience."
Tasting
Note This white blend of 74% Chardonnay and 26% Viognier shows fresh
citrus and limey flavours with peachy apricot undertones. These are
complimented by the soft, fresh mouth feel that is long and lingering,
finishing off as a well-balanced, multidimensional and complex wine without
being too serious.
