In the Vineyard

The highest quality Chenin Blanc grapes were sourced from the Swartland and the Viognier from a few select vineyards in the Piekenierskloof region

Harvest

Late January & early February 2016

Winemaking

The grapes were hand-picked very early in the morning, which  allowed for the grapes to be delivered cold to the cellar, where they were destalked and gently pressed.
The free-run juice settled for two days before the clear juice  was racked off and cold fermented in tank. On completion  of fermentation, the wine was left on fine lees for 6 months  before bottling.

Tasting Notes

A dazzling spectrum of pear and peach aromas. It displays a crisp, clean and refreshing finish

Food Pairing

Salads, especially those containing cold meats and a bit of fruit. The wine can also handle spicy food such as traditional  Cape Malay dishes. Light seafood, pasta and risotto dishes, or anything containing goat’s cheese, are also great pairings.

Much like Twitter, here at OneDayOnly we have a cap on the number of words we're allowed to use for our blurbs.

That number is roughly around the 140 mark.

Having this system in place really makes it super important for us get our point(s) across succinctly.

Also, we figure that's how corporate limits the amount of nonsense we force you to read everyday. Sneaky buggers.

So would we ever intentionally abuse this system just because we were in a hurry to finish up on a weekday afternoon? Us? Never. That would be in poor taste, and a little underhanded to be honest.

We like to think we're above that sort of thing.
