Donkiesbaai Grenache Noir

R300.00

A lively combination of red cherries and black currant

These flavours jump out of the glass. A floral aroma of lavender overlays notes of flint and iron. The fruit profile develops into blueberries on the palate with sour red cherry notes adding to the tangy acidity.

Cedar spice lends some savoury complexity to this medium bodied wine, with light yet firm tannins. Vibrant and fresh, with a long sour cherry finish.

Donkiesbaai

Far up the west coast...

About 3 and a half hours drive north of Cape Town, lies an open bay of white sand strewn with black mussels and kelp, with the icy waters of the Atlantic beating the shore. This is Donkiesbaai, where my family have holidayed for four generations, since 1873.
This unassuming spot lends its name to our adventurous range of wines from the Piekenierskloof. The wine was made with the cuisine of the west coast in mind. Crayfish, Harders, and a cold glass of wine is part of the history that is Donkiesbaai.
