Grape Varieties

100% Pinot Grigio

Food Matching Note:

Excellent as an aperitif, this wine also works with fish, seafood and most white meat dishes.

Tasting Note:

Stormy Cape sources grapes from the best vineyards from South Africa’s famed Western Cape. Kept cool by breezes from the mountains and Breede River. This refreshing Pinot Grigio is a light to medium bodied white wine bursting with zesty citrus flavours and hints of ripe stone fruit. An exciting new take on the very popular Italian varietal.

Grape:

Made from Pinot Grigio grape made famous by the Northern Italian region of the Veneto.

Location:

A co-operative wine made from grapes sourced from vineyards on the Western Cape of South Africa.

Flavour:

Lighter in body with citrus, apple and a hint of riper stone fruit flavour.

USP:

Stormy Cape's name derives from the often treacherous sailing conditions on the Western Cape!

Combined:

A South African twist on the ever popular Pinot Grigio grape. Refreshing and light with a delicate hint of stone fruit.

Vinification Note:

The grapes are sourced from one of the Western Capes most modern co-operatives. The grapes are gently pressed before fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures, this helps to preserve the natural fruit and keep the wine tasting as fresh as possible.
