Kaapzicht Winery
The Kaapzicht Wine Estate in the Bottelary Hills, Stellenbosch, South Africa, was founded in 1712 and has been managed by the Steytler family since 1946. With a focus on Pinotage, the Winery has gained international recognition, especially for the Cuveé Steytler Vision. The Winery mainly produces red wines such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Shiraz, as well as white varieties like Chenin Blanc and Sauvignon Blanc. All grapes are grown on site and processed in the estate's own cellar, resulting in Estate Wines. The current Winemaker Danie Steytler is an established figure in the Stellenbosch District winemaking scene.
Tasting notes
The Kaapzicht Skuinsberg Cinsault 2022 has a beautiful, dark color, which comes from the sun-dried strawberries and blackberries that are processed into the wine.
The wine has an initially slightly sour and fruity taste, consisting of various red fruits like dark currants and cherries. In the finish, the red wine leaves a clear and sweet taste on the tongue.
Grape Variety
Chenin Blanc is a widely cultivated, old white wine grape variety that has been grown in France (in Anjou – Touraine) since the 9th century. Compared to other white wine grape varieties, this variety is very productive. This leads to a very high quality of the white wine when reduced on the vine.
In South Africa, Chenin Blanc is the most widely grown white wine grape variety. The reason for this is primarily the very high diversity. For example, there are "wild-growing" vines (so-called Bush Vines) that are usually not irrigated. For this reason, the vines penetrate very deep into the ground with their roots to reach water. These Chenin Blancs therefore have a stronger depth and complexity.
The grape variety can also be aged very fresh and fruity in stainless steel tanks, developing into a very nice summer wine. Through the Aged in oak barrels, one obtains very complex and full-bodied white wines. The aromas of Chenin Blanc wines range from peach, apricot, and tropical fruits to honey and melon.
