Swartland Bukketraube South Africa

The wine is an explosion of aroma and flavour. It has prominent muscat flavours with apricot and floral notes on the nose.

A well-balanced wine with a delicate sweetness, crisp acidity and creamy lingering mouth-feel.

More information :

The variety is the result of a crossing of Silvaner and Schiava Rossa (Trollinger), obtained in the mid-19th Century in Randersacker, Germany by winegrower Sebastian Englert.

Unfortunately, Bukettraube has been largely driven from its homeland by powdery mildew, and is now almost exclusively found in South Africa, albeit in rather small quantities. Recent estimates give the total plantings of the variety at just under 80 hectares (195 acres) worldwide.

Pairing:
Great with spicy food, cheese.
