Description
Wildeberg’s rationale is to source the finest vineyards available to us across Franschhoek and the Coastal Region, from which cuvées are plucked to make Wildeberg and the Terroir Series releases In doing so there remains a small yet definitive expression of all the vineyards we worked with, and its these cuvees that are again selected to go into Coterie by Wildeberg. Both cultivars are fermented whole bunch, with some whole berry fruit, there is no crush, just a daily pump over during the natural fermentation. The components are racked to French and Austrian oak, new and old, for 20 months before blending and bottling.
Tasting Notes :
A ripe and expressive nose of crushed fruits, cherry, wild plum and blackberry, with brown spice and star anise. Robust and richly flavoured with concentrated damson fruit backed by juicy acidity and a savoury mid palate with subtle, gently spicy oak. The mouthfilling fruit is offset by fine tannins on a fresh, sappy finish.
