Signal Gun's Hooggelegen estate has been in the De Wit family for over five generations and is one of the oldest family owned wine farms in the Durbanville area.
The VOC installed more than 50 cannons on hills and mountains around the Cape to form a signal gun chain that could call the Burgher Militia to defend the Cape. This signal gun chain extended from Signal Hill, Cape Town via Durbanville to Citrusdal in the North West, Worcester in the north and via Tygerberg to Suurbraak beyond Swellendam in the east. We still have the original Signal Gun on our farm and use this cannon and a few others that are still in good working order to fire shots on joyous occasions.
This wine offers a nose teeming with aromas of spice, including pepper, and dark berries. Expect similar notes on the palate, with a graceful finish. Awarded a 4 Star John Platter.
Food Pairing
The wine can be enjoyed with a range of foods such as crumbly mature cheese, beef stroganoff, wild duck, rabbit and venison.
