Description

6 bottle pack.

60% of grapes sourced from Paardeberg and 40% Polkadraai Hills. “Batman and Superman both have their strengths but what if they joined forces?” is winemaker Lukas van Loggerenberg’s rhetorical question by way of introduction to this wine and the outcome of blending Swartland with Stellenbosch is something formidable. The nose shows citrus and peach with slight notes of struck match, wet wool, and talcum powder in the background. The palate, meanwhile, is extraordinarily compact and concentrated with bracing acidity and a finish that goes on and on. It’s a wonderfully precise, well-proportioned, and nuanced wine. 98/100 Winemag.co.za

Producer Information: Van Loggerenberg

Lukas van Loggerenberg. The name is quite a mouthful - but then, so are his wines!

Despite owning no vineyards, he has managed to make quite an impact since we first tasted his Chenin Blanc, Cabernet Franc and Cinsault a few years back.

Devoted to expressing particular patches of earth, Lukas reminds visitors to his makeshift cellar that terroir is not everything and that some winemakers just have the touch and an instinct to make great wine. He likes to think of himself as “a farmer rather than a winemaker”.

All Lukas's wines are made without the aid of any additives, including commercial yeast.
