Wine from Hermon
Filter
Hermon is a small wine region located in South Africa and is 4,101 feet above sea level. Nestled on the slopes of Mount Hermon, the region still has most of the natural vegetation intact with a boutique wine industry that is gaining an excellent reputation.
Hermon is a tiny village and is one of four towns in the Riebeek Valley. Near Riebeeck Kasteel, Hermon is a popular destination for tourism with its olive groves and vineyards.
When apartheid ended in February of 1990, South Africa has been welcomed back on the world stage and is a major wine producer. The Western Cape plays host to 18 wine routes with some of them being the most beautiful on the planet.
Wine production goes back hundreds of years and was brought to the area by the French who left their homeland in droves during the mid 1600’s. Jan van Riebeeck planted the first vineyard in South Africa shortly afterward.
The semi-arid climate is classified as mid-latitude dry and enjoys a subtropical biozone. The soil has a loamy sand texture and is high in arenosols. Wines produced in the South Cape are bio-diverse thanks to the microclimates that are created by the Indian and Atlantic oceans.

LASER ETCHED McKenzie ! 5000ml!
My First comment tasting this wine is "wow!" It's delicious; our flagship wine at Paradigm and it delivers. Dense, deep, ripe aromas of black berry and black cherry-like fruit layered with caramel and toastiness from a nice mix of French Oak barrels. Flavors coat the palate with matching notes in a classic Cabernet Sauvignon presentation. One of our best Cabs to date!
Paradigm Cabernet Sauvignon is made from 96% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Merlot , 1% Petit Verdot
Review:
"Owned and managed by the Harris family, Paradigm winery produced its first vintage in 1991 in Oakville with winemaker Heidi Barrett. A self-contained winery estate with 50 acres of vineyards, Paradigm maintains a hands-on approach to all winemaking and vineyard operations. The 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon consists of 89% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot and 2% Cabernet Franc, and is aged in both new and used French oak for 20 months, then aged a further 20 months in bottle before release. The total production for this vintage was 5,544 bottles."

Shenandoah University’s 150th anniversary white showcases albariño, a Spanish grape which Chrysalis Vineyards, the producer of this wine, helped bring to Virginia. Albariño is proving popular in Virginia, with its botanical aroma, bright acidity, and notes of peach and green apple. Drink on its own or with light meals such as seafood. The wine’s name recognizes the rolling hills of the university’s Shenandoah Valley home.
