Cape Winemakers Guild

Cederberg Ghost Corner Semillon 2011

Skin contact for 8 hours and only free run juice was used. 50% of the wine was cold fermented in stainless steel and 50% was fermented in French oak for 4 months before the wines were blended to show fresh Semillon fruit with a creamy lees character. Tasting Notes: The cool maritime climate of Elim expresses elegant aromas of green fig, nettles and dusty dry fynbos with a distinctive minerality. The fermentation in French oak has added complexity and length with smoky bacon nuances. A well balanced wine with a crisp acidity. Ideal with fresh seafood, or on its own. Best enjoyed 4-6 years from vintage.
