Description
Discover the CRAVEN PINOT GRIS, a standout white wine hailing from South Africa's Stellenbosch area. In this celebrated winegrowing district, Pinot Gris vines remain an uncommon sight, turning every bottle into a special discovery for enthusiasts seeking something beyond the ordinary.
Picture vines rooted deep into a striking landscape of Koffieklip, the local name for Coffee Stone. This vivid red soil emerges from sedimentary layers fused together by iron oxides, creating a foundation that shapes the wine's character from the ground up. Harvest time arrives swiftly here, with these grapes leading the way into the winery during the crisp early days of January.
The journey from vine to glass unfolds with deliberate care. Fermentation happens in open-top tanks, where around 10% whole clusters join the mix, lending texture and depth. Following a bit more than a week in contact with the skins, the wine moves gently to seasoned oak barrels, allowing its essence to settle and shine.
At 13.00% ABV and bottled in a classic 750 ml size, CRAVEN PINOT GRIS delivers a pure expression of its rare origins. Whether you're building a collection of unique whites or hunting for the next versatile pour at gatherings, this South African gem invites exploration. Its scarcity in Stellenbosch adds an air of exclusivity, making it a thoughtful choice for those who value terroir-driven stories in every sip.
Bring home a piece of this distinctive vineyard heritage. The interplay of iron-rich soil and early-season freshness promises a wine that stands apart, ready to elevate weeknight dinners or casual tastings with friends. Opt for CRAVEN PINOT GRIS when you crave a white wine that whispers tales of its rugged, sun-kissed home.
