Kloovenburg The Village White 2025

13% abv

Vol- 75cl

Lemon green and follows through with a zingy freshness and persistence.

The Village White is 60% Chenin blanc, 25% Roussanne, 15% Verdelho.

All grapes are handpicked during the early morning hours and then cooled overnight in a temperature controlled room at 5 °C. Grapes are then crushed, destemmed and pressed. Dry ice (CO2) is used during this process to prevent oxidation. The juice settles in stainless steel tanks for 48 hours at 8 °C. The clear juice is then racked from the thick lees and inoculated yeast, which takes place at 12°C, taking an average of 20 days to complete. After fermentation, the wine is given a low dose of sulphur and left on the lees for three months before it is blended and bottled.

Having been registered on 26th September 1704, some 313 years ago, Kloovenburg is the oldest registered property in the Swartland, but only by half an hour. The farm is based on the edge of Kasteelberg, the mountainous granite fin slicing through the wheatbelt that overshadows the small town of Riebeek-Kasteel. Specifically, Kloovenburg is in the ward of Riebeekberg and has been growing for many decades Shiraz, Chardonnay and other classic local cultivars. Recently this established, ancient farm has very much been part of the independent Swartland movement in terms of recognising the local shale and granite soils and increasingly successful plantings of Grenache Blanc, Grenache Noir and Carignan as well as their more traditional roster of grapes. Since 2014 the winemaker here has been the hugely-talented Jolandie Fouche whose energy and passion for this evolving region is evident in her amazing Shiraz, Grenache, and Chardonnay. Pieter du Toit, the third-generation family owner of the farm has long championed the region and his family is reflected in the Eight Feet Red and White blends, the feet being the four pairs found on his sons.
