Wines
In 2018 we have had a fairly good harvest for us and we are very excited with some new offerings we will be trying from this harvest. We will continue to offer our soft and subtle Rose but also we are attempting a method traditionale Rose. For our red we are calling it Egmont Reserve. This will be a full bodied wine in the style of previous years.
However one thing has changed this year. We have had our vines DNA tested and it would appear although Pinotage in character they are in fact a hybrid developed by Mr Siebel in France and this cross was designed for severe growing conditions, which explains why it does so well in our very exposed vineyard. The selection was named Plantet.
So the vintage of 2018 has some very exciting and challenging elements to it for us.
We also offer a selection of wines crafted at our other property situated in Marlborough.
