The majority grapes for our white blend emanates from the Swartland, and the wine typifies this profile. It over-delivers in every sense. The Viognier brings a rich, ripe fruitiness on the nose with its alluring peach melba aromas. Our Chenin offers acidity for balance and freshness, with layered fruitiness on the mid-palate. We always use Grenache Blanc in our blend for its gentle yellow plum and slightly zesty character and elegance. Blending these three varieties is easy when the components deliver such opulence and abundant flavours.
The Wolftrap White
The nose is lively and inviting, with attractive aromas of yellow apple, ripe lemons, greengage and lemon verbena and gentle whiffs of clove, nutmeg and ginger creating complexity. The slight spicy notes and citrus character of the nose follow through onto the palate with flavours of Cape gooseberry, white peach, fresh pineapple, and a hint of lemon curd. The mid-palate is smooth, round and fleshy, although also very focused. The wine is medium to full-bodied, with integrated acidity and the subtle touch of oak adding to its great balance. Lemongrass and angelica linger on a fresh finish.
