Description
Sadie Family Die Ouwingerdreeks Skerpioen 2024 embodies a profound craftsmanship derived from venerable Swartland vines of Chenin Blanc and Palomino. The wine unveils a sensory palette, inviting you into layers of delicate quince, zesty lemon, dried herbs, and luscious apricot, with a salty minerality and a whisper of floral honey completing the aromatic symphony. This exceptional Swartland expression is noted for its vibrant freshness and juicy texture, harmonized by a lively acidity, all attributed to the distinctive terroir! Nestled just 2 km from the Atlantic Ocean, this cooler region is characterized by its arid conditions, averaging only 300 mm of rainfall per year. The term Ou Wingerdreeks signifies ‘old vine,’ casting a spotlight on wines sourced from unique ancient vines of the Cape. Meanwhile, Skerpioen translates to scorpion in Afrikaans.
