About
At Neethlingshof Estate the vine roots stretch back to the earliest years of winemaking at the Cape – grapes were already being produced on the farm by 1705. Despite being steeped in history with its thatched Cape-Dutch homestead and outbuildings, it has also remained at the forefront of new trends and developments and has become a leading exponent of the drive to balance nature and wine-growing in the Western Cape. As a consequence, its select range of wines is a telling reflection of what is uniquely Neethlingshof.
Product Features
- After malolactic fermentation, the wine is further matured for 10 months in mainly French oak barrels.
- Deep ruby red in colour.
- An enticing bouquet with aromas of black plum, mulberry, a hint of white pepper and butterscotch.
- Medium to full-bodied wine with a flavour profile of black cherry, stewed fruits and cedar rounded off with silky tannins.
- The wine is ready to drink now but will mature for a further 5 years.
- A delicious all-rounder that will partner well with red and white meat dishes such as garlic and rosemary roast chicken and Beef Wellington, also with vegetarian moussaka or spicy vegetable curry, or even soft and pungent blue or Gorgonzola cheese.

Sort out your baggage!
It happens to all of us. We get to the threadbare bottom of a toothpaste tube, reminding ourselves to buy some more the next time we go to the shop, only to get home that evening with literally everything else in our grocery bags BUT the toothpaste. So, we decide to do it the old-fashioned way and make a list: toothpaste, bread, milk, lava lamp bulbs, the works.
We arrive at the shop having struggled to find parking, grab a trolley and realise: we left the list at home. The vicious cycle continues. How can some people be SO organised and others just... not? If something as simple as having basic dental hygiene at home could cause this much trouble, how on earth would we be able to arrange a weekend away?
It's simple, really. Our main deal of luggage organiser cubes from NomadNest. No, they won't help you remember what to pack for your trip, but the rush of seeing your stuff in neatly packed cubes will be worth it. Toothpaste not included.
