Description
In a nutshell:
Light, fresh and fruity white from the Western Cape - Portugal meets South Africa.
The lowdown:
Fernao Pires (aka Maria Gomes) is a native Portuguese variety that has been grown down in South Africa for decades - 'Strange Bru' being Afrikaans for weird brother. Originally widely planted for use in brandy production there is now only a very small amount left, and judging by this wine these vineyards (some of the oldest blocks left up in the Worcester WO, 60 miles north east of Cape Town) they'll being staying put! Mineral, citrus and stone fruit aromas lead onto a bright and fresh palate with ripe, juicy stone fruit flavours and a dry, crisp finish.
When to drink:
Try with coconut infused curry, white fish, or pan roasted chicken.
Suitable for Vegans
