Description

A complex nose dominated with tropical fruit and releasing aromas of white flowers, fragrant notes of bread and balsamic tones.

Matured “under veil” and best experienced when savoured and enjoyed at 3-6 Deg.

Pair with light seafood, sushi and appetizers with salty or umami flavours like tempura or cured hams, olives and mushrooms.

Enjoy now through to 2028.

This wine is an unfiltered wine and may look slightly cloudy or contain tiny natural particles like yeast or grape solids, but these are harmless and natural. Therefore offering a richer, more textured and fuller-bodied wine keeping within character of the grape varietal.

Additional notes: 

Our Palomino is produced using the grapes from a traditional Spanish varietal planted here on Brakkuil farm back in 1978. The vineyard at the foot of “Klein Tafelberg” (small Table Mountain) is comprised of limestone rich coastal soil – adding hugely to the Palomino’s subtle notes of natural sea salt minerality.

Under veil – means after the grapes have been pressed the juice is left for primary fermentation to begin. It is then when the “veil” begins to form after a couple of weeks that the wine is then moved to stainless steel tanks or cement eggs to mature for another few months.
