Cousins Danie and Hugo are 5th generation growers with prime vineyards in the Swartland, Devon Valley and the very exciting Polkadraai ward in Stellenbosch. Great wine is made in the vineyards and they supply a roll-call of exceptional producers – names like Alheit Vineyards, Crystallum, Raats Family Wines, Thorne & Daughters, Mulderbosch & LeRiche to name but a few. Embodying the drive of the new generation Hugo and Danie decided not only to sell grapes and have other people make great wines from them but to make some wine too. So started Carinus Family Wines using their selection from their 100s hectares to focus on what works in each area.
Carinus Family Vineyards Rooidraai 2021
12.5% abv
From a 42 year old dry farmed Swartland vineyard near Malmesbury. Fermented with wild yeast in 11 months old 300 litre barrels. Long and fine with weighty spiced fruits and delicate honey-twisted aromatic lift. The ballet dancer from vines up the slope on a steeper gradient. Rich and ripe- thatch and baking spice aromas segue into a palate that’s leesy, complex and focused, with deftly handled 25% new wood and impressive length.
