Description

Profound levels of dimension with years to develop. Pure red fruit aromas, soft spices, turkish delight fringes, gravel, deepens to black fruit and a sturdy, austere frame. Rich and luxurious. Full succulent fruit up front in the mouth, velvety and complex tannin, acid tension on the sides, black fruit down the middle. Grippy, austere backbone holds to a long finish.

Newton Johnson Wines

Newton Johnson Vineyards is owned and managed by the Newton Johnson family. The farm is based in the upper Hemel-en-Aarde Valley near the seaside town of Hermanus, an hour and a half’s drive out of Cape Town. It is home, in the words of Neal Martin, “to some of the best Chardonnays and Pinot Noirs you will find in the Capelands”.

Hemel-en-Aarde

Hemel-en-Aarde, situated in the Western Cape of South Africa, is a renowned wine region celebrated for its cool climate and exceptional wines. Nestled near Hermanus, it benefits from a maritime influence due to its proximity to the Atlantic Ocean, resulting in moderate temperatures and consistent breezes that are ideal for viticulture.
Hemel-en-Aarde is particularly acclaimed for its premium Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, which thrive in the cool conditions, offering elegance, bright fruit flavours, and refined acidity. The area also produces notable Syrah and Sauvignon Blanc, known for their complexity and balance.
