Naude Family Wines Langpad Colombard 2021
Vineyards
Planted in 1983 and grown in the Vredendal-area on the West Coast, the farm lays about 35km from the ocean.
Winemaking and Maturation
Whole bunch pressed, the juice underwent natural fermentation in 3rd fill French oak barrels where it was kept on the lees. The wine spent a year in barrel and shows luxurious body along with a striking purity and strong line of acidity.
With minimal interference and no additions barring some sulphites, this wine will age for 30+ years.
Tasting Notes
We were amazed at how classic this cultivar can present itself, beginning with a gorgeous white crisp peach and pear on the nose, and finishing with that saline salty freshness.
A truly versatile wine for all cuisines and every occasion.
