Description

A beautifully textured and expressive white from South Africa’s Stellenbosch region. It opens with aromas of ripe pear, yellow apple, honeysuckle, and a subtle saline edge. It is rich yet finely balanced on the palate, offering layers of stone fruit, lemon curd, and wet stone, supported by vibrant acidity and a creamy, mouth-coating texture. Natural fermentation and aging on the lees add depth and a gentle savoury note. The finish is long, mineral, and refreshing, capturing both the fruit's ripeness and the coastal influence's freshness.

Salt of the Earth

Salt of the Earth is a passion project born over dinner in late 2017, when wine writer Jamie Goode, Zalto importer Daniel Primack, and Indigo's Ben Henshaw bonded over their shared love of saline, terroir-driven whites. One bottle led to another, and the idea for their own barrel project began to take shape.

Their mission? To champion a grape that speaks clearly of its origin—age-worthy, mineral, and too often overlooked. A variety beloved by the trade but underappreciated by the wider world. The result is a range that’s all about purity, precision, and honest expression of place—wines they love to drink themselves.

Stellenbosch

Stellenbosch, located in South Africa’s Western Cape, is one of the country’s most renowned wine regions, celebrated for its premium wines and prestigious vineyards. It benefits from a Mediterranean climate, with warm days and cool nights, perfect for cultivating high-quality grapes.
The area is particularly known for its robust reds, including Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, which exhibit deep fruit flavours and complex, well-structured profiles. The whites, such as Chenin Blanc and Sauvignon Blanc, are noted for their crisp acidity and vibrant fruit character.
Historically, Stellenbosch is significant as it was one of the first areas settled by Dutch colonists in the late 17th century. The wine industry in Stellenbosch began to develop in the 19th century, and today, it remains a cornerstone of South Africa’s wine heritage, blending traditional techniques with modern innovation to produce exceptional wines.
