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.

Review:
"A fragrant and spicy Chateauneuf that marries richness and structure with finesse and fascination. The fine tannins build beautifully at the self-confidently dry finish, where spicy and chalky elements mingle beautifully, with just a hint of milk chocolate neatly accenting this. A complex blend based on grenache. From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification. Drink or hold."

Burgo Viejo Rioja Tinto is made from 85% Tempranillo, 10% Garnacha & 5% Mazuelo
Burgo Viejo Tinto comes from a careful selection of the grapes during the harvest followed by meticulous vinification to extract the highest potential of the grapes in an effort to achieve a fresh, powerful, fruit-driven young wine that will satisfy a wide range of palates.
The wine shows fresh aromas of red fruit –strawberry candy- on a very subtle background of sweet vanilla and cocoa. In mouth it is also fresh with balanced acidity, good length and absolutely velvety tannins.
Alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel vats at controlled temperature and malolactic fermentation in concrete vats.
Enjoy it with pasta dishes, cheese and red meat.
