AYAMA

Origin:
Voor Paardeberg

Tasting Notes:

Vermentino taste is a quite difficult to define in few words. This is because Vermentino has higher levels of phenols which contribute to its subtle bitterness on the finish–a taste often described as green almond. A glass of classic Sardinia Vermentino will offer up lively aromas of pear, white peach, lime and pink grapefruit with subtle notes of crushed rocks and citrus zest. On the palate, Vermentino is almost always dry and somewhat oily with flavours of grapefruit and citrus, with a crushed rocky minerality and saltiness. On the finish, it can be a bit snappy with bitterness similar to the taste of grapefruit pith or, if it’s on the riper side, fresh almond. We are happy to say Ayama Vermentino has the complexity of a Sardinian Vermentino, combined with the flavours of South African soil.​

Available Vintage:

Origin:
Voor Paardeberg

Tasting Notes:

Carignan is an expression of dark cherry fruit, blueberries, violet and other floral aromas along with notes of orange peel, black liquorice and cocoa. Well bodied with tannins that have a fine, dusty aspect and fresh and lively acidity with excellent potential for ageing. It’s delicious paired with roast meats, duck and earthy root vegetables.

Origin:
Paarl

Tasting Notes:

This is a supple, elegant and very appealing wine with the tannins well integrated, but prominent enough to need 6 months longer to show off the ripe, fleshy black-cherry, plums, chocolate shadings to their best advantage and to be combined to the tone of spicyness and peppery flavours which are insured by the shiraz in main percentage.

Origin:
Voor Paardeberg

Tasting Notes:

Straw-colored and full bodied, with crisp acids. The nose has bright green apple and mandarin orange aromas, with clean flavors of more apple, mineral and a touch of peach. It typically has a lingering finish with a hint of licorice.

A straw appearance with excellent varietal expressions. Very intense aromas, which range from country hay, floral, tropical fruit and apricots to spice. Plenty of ripe fruit flavours.

Tasting Notes:

Nestled on the slopes of the Paardeberg, the Shiraz block keeps watch  over the farm at night. This grape pronounces a full red wine bouquet expressing ripe berries overlaid with green pepper and spicy flavours. There is excellent follow through onto the palate where the peppery flavours dominate. The well-integrated ripe tannins make for easy accessibility giving a nice balance to the wine.​
