South African "Wines to Taste"
2/2/2017
Long-time client and friend of Classic Africa Lianne B. proposed that we add a "Wines to Taste" section to our newsletter and has provided a few suggestions to get us started. Thank you Lianne! Please let us know your favorites as we would love to share them.

Vriesenhof Kalista Chardonnay:
Aromas of lemon and lime with some dried pear. A beautiful creaminess with sweet brioche and almond with lingering green apple and citrus on the aftertaste.
|
Elgin Viognier:
Viognier can be one of the most powerfully aromatic and seductive of wines, typically showing aromas of peach, apricot, candied orange rind, orange blossom and jasmine. In the finest examples, one can experience a wave of extremely round and buttery fruit of great viscosity and silkiness that envelops the palate and leaves one astounded by the sheer unctuous properties of its character.

Creation Pinot Noir:
Deep ruby in color, gleaming and inviting in the glass. The intensely fragrant bouquet shows a mélange of red berry aromas, elegant vanilla and a whiff of wood spice. These follow through on the full-bodied palate where soft, supple tannins contribute to the dense structure. A superbly balanced wine with a lingering, memorable aftertaste.

Accept what life offers you and try to drink from every cup. All wines should be tasted; some should only be sipped, but with others, drink the whole bottle. ― Paulo Coelho
