Description

Tasting Notes

A fruit-driven, off-dry white wine. Stunning off-dry style with fragrant guava roll and fruity flavours.

 

Winemakers’ Notes

Grapes were night harvested at optimum ripeness. Hand harvested. Cold fermentation with residual sugar. Minimal intervention in the natural process of vinification, allowing the cultivar to express its individual characteristics and the soil of its origin.

The Hennie Retief Snr acquired the farm Goudmyn in 1937 and renamed it in honor of Christina van Loveren, ancestor of his new bride Jean van Zyl. Today van Loveren is South Africa’s largest family owned and operated wine producer. At the helm are the four cousins who are expertly led by Phillip Retief.
