Tasting Note

The nose is detailed and beautiful – ripe pear and sweet herbs, both citrus juice and rind. The palate is very pure and true, fine boned clarity, lovely proportions, no extra weight (unlike myself). This vintage shows good intensity and saline length. For me, the key word for this vintage is purity. This wine is already drinking well in its youth, but will reward maturation.

Product Notes

Cartology Bush Vines is a highly sought-after white blend from Alheit Vineyards in South Africa. Crafted from Chenin blanc, Sémillon, and other indigenous varieties grown in old, unirrigated bush vine vineyards, this wine brings together the unique flavors and textures of the region. On the nose, it exudes aromas of lime zest, quince, and honeysuckle, while the palate is filled with flavors of pear, apricot, and a delicate herbaceous undertone. The wine is rich, textured, and balanced with a long, clean finish. Its complexity and elegance make it a perfect pairing for seafood, Asian cuisine, and light, fresh salads.

About the Winery

Alheit Vineyards

The story and venture for Alheit Vineyards began with the endeavours of Chris Alheit and his wife, Suzaan Alheit. The two first met and came to know each other at Stellenbosch University. Soon, they developed a romantic relationship, travelled extensively across the globe, tied the knot in matrimony, and continued their trips. During their travels, they came across the winemaking process and art and soon shared a mutual passion for the craft. It led them to move to Hemelrand farm, close to the South African town of Hermanus, and establish Alheit Vineyards in 2010.
