Under the Influence of Altitude

Wednesday 17th June

Terroir – the combination between climate and soil influencing the vineyard. We decided to explore this a bit and focus on one particular area of terroir; altitude! South Africa is blessed with sea fronts, valley floors and mountain tops, all holding parcels of vineyard. We have sourced a range of wines from varying altitudes to explore just what height does for a wine. Some of the wines to be explored include, Thelema Riesling, Fairview Semillon, Cederberg Shiraz, De Trafford Merlot, Belfield Cabernet Sauvignon, Fairview Jakkalsfontein Shiraz. Come and get Under the Influence of Altitude with us!
