Catherine Marshall Wines

What began as a festive three-barrel foot stomp event attended by a handful of friends on a south peninsula beach in 1996 has led to the decision was made in 2007 to source all grapes from mostly cool climate Elgin and the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley

Description

Catherine Marshall Amatra Jono’s Wave White 2023

Grape Varietals & Region: Chenin Grapes were selected from two distinct vineyards, namely from elevated (360m above sea level) Elgin, on light Bokkeveld Shales and granitic domes on sandstone remnants in the Bottelary Hills, Stellenbosch

Taste Profile: Primary white peach, stone fruit and fresh apple aromatics may evolve into nutty, spicy baked apple and cardamom notes. It has a bright, fresh line of acidity like a cool wave break which supports generous, mouth filling flavours of lichees, ripe pears and white peach and finishes with a long line of almond paste and lime zest.

Lush & Tropical Whites

Succulent stonefruit with a citrus backbone characterises these wines. Typically, they have notes of tropical fruit, and come from warmer climates. A touch of oak during the winemaking process also helps to give some softness to the wine.

Expect notes of peach, apricot, pineapples, melon & a buttery texture
