Winery Old Road Wine

The Winery Old Road Wine Company was opened in December 2018 and has enjoyed high recognition among wine lovers in South Africa from day one. The Winery, which is located between the railway line and the old main road, offers its visitors a 180-degree view of the massive Franschhoek mountain range. On the so-called "Old Road" everything began. The road not only tells the story of a Winery and its vineyards, but also of an extraordinary town, Franschhoek, and the historical figures who shaped it. The Winery Old Road Wine Company is especially known for its noble white wines and its full-bodied red wines.

Old Road Wine 'Juliette' Sauvignon Blanc

From the grapes of the Syrah or Shiraz variety, two different styles emerge depending on the origin of the wine and the aging process in the Winery. These differ significantly from each other in both aroma and taste.

The Shiraz wines have a very strong and fruit-forward taste with aromas of cherries and plums. Additionally, aromas of dark Chocolate are typical for Shiraz wines.

The Syrah wines have a rather slim and elegant character in comparison. Additionally, Syrah wines are characterized by a spicy taste. Syrah wines also often exhibit subtle wood notes and typical aromas such as cloves, cinnamon, pepper, forest floor, or leather.

Both wine styles are characterized by a complex aroma and a racy character.
