Details
What an incredible wine - quite a sensual bouquet with lemon curd, white chocolate and almond aromas, plus really pronounced mineral tones. The palate is taught but well-balanced - skeins of lemon curd and barely ripe nectarines, straw and salt. This wine has immense length, and will gracefully age for years to come. Wonderful.

Lukas Van Loggerenberg is, without doubt, one of the hottest names in South African wine. Despite growing up around wine – in the Breedekloof Valley – and studying viticulture and oenology at Elsenburg, he nearly became a doctor! The defining moment in his wine journey occurred in France, where at Domaine de La Chevalerie in the Loire Valley, winemaker Stephanie Caslot opened a 1989 Cabernet Franc that took his breath away. Right there Lukas decided to start his own wine label! Lucky for us he did. Van Loggerenberg is only on his 4th vintage, but already his name is being mentioned across the globe. His wines are produced using fruits from some of the best vineyards in the Cape, farmed by talented and passionate farmers. The Loire Valley still shines bright in his wines, with fresh acidity and purity a hallmark of the range. All the wines are made without added yeast or acid, and express pure fruit and wonderful texture as naturally as possible. We're thrilled to be able to bring Lukas' wines to Australia - we are confident in the not too distant future he'll be regarded as one of South Africa's most important winemakers.
