Lady Ann Darling Heritage White Wine, 750 ml

Description

This wine is named after Lady Ann, who married the Cape Colonial Governor, founder of the Darling Estate, in 1851. The governor, Sir Charles Henry, was a passionate campaigner for human rights and was called »the people's governor«.

The vinification: This wine is produced from Sémillon (50 %) and Sauvignon Blanc (50 %) grapes grown on old bush vines far up in the Darling mountains. The wine was aged for eight to nine months in French oak barrels to achieve the desired complexity and depth.

The wine: An elegant wine with a bright colour, delicate aroma of green figs, tropical fruits, pears and pineapple. At the same time, it has a full mid palate with complex fruit aromas following through and results in a wine with a great length and acidity.

The food: This harmonious and well-structured white wine pairs well with aromatic prawns and other seafood, but also goes well with poultry or pork, as well as salads, asparagus and goat's cheese. The wine needs to be served slightly chilled and has good ageing potential.

Darling Cellars

Darling Cellars was founded in 1949 under the name Mamreweg Wine Cellar and is located north of Cape Town in the Darling District on the west coast of South Africa. The vineyards themselves are Darling Cellar's No.1 source of inspiration. From deep granite soils dominated by bush vines derive the best grapes for wine production, which are carefully selected. The cool breeze from the Atlantic provides a cooler climate which allows the production of special wines that stand out for their fruit and elegant style. At Darling Cellars, winemaking is considered a craft and an art in which nature itself plays the greatest role. The Darling Cellars winemakers aim to keep the technical influence on the grapes as little as possible on their way through the first careful selection, pressing, fermentation and maturation. The head oenologist puts it this way: »What nature gives us each year; we try and get into the bottle with passion and honour."
