Silk Weaver Sangiovese 2021

Aroma Profile
Sangiovese, the classical Italian red grape variety derives its name from the Latin
Sangius Jovis, meaning “the blood of Jupiter”. This wine is a rare Stellenbosch interpretation of the medium- bodied Sangiovese grape. On the nose, the wine shows dark berry fruit and a warm glowing hint of spice. Flavours abound displaying warm cedar wood, black cardamom and a rich mulberry finish that lingers lusciously on the palate. Well-rounded, grippy tannins make for a wine which is accessible now, but with enough structure and balance to age and reward well in years to come.

Terroir

Viticulture
The hectare single vineyard vines are meticulously cared for by hand to ensure maximum
quality. It is grown on a unique Italian trellising system called “Pergola or Tendone”, typical and traditional in many parts of Italy. The fruit was hand picked on the 6 th of March 2017 in small lug boxes to ensure that perfect and undamaged grapes reached the cellar.
