Description:
Jordan is a family owned estate situated at the upper end of Stellenbosch Kloof. The fertile valley with its variety of meso-climates and soil conditions create a wide spectrum of terroirs, allowing them to produce an exciting diversity of wine styles..
Cold Fact is the album from singer-songwriter Sixto Rodriguez, who became a
cultural phenomenon in South Africa and was made internationally famous in
the film ‘Searching for Sugar Man.’ It is also a play on the cold soak technique we use to extract flavour from the skins of our ripest Sauvignon Blanc
grapes (we search for sugar man), which are then chilled and left for hours or
even overnight on the skins, with the process helping to extract the intense
flavours associated with this highly aromatic grape variety.
Ageing Potential: Drink Fresh
Tasting Note:
This unoaked offering exudes aromatics of blackcurrant leaf & ripe Cape fig balanced by a complex fruit structure and sweet Provençale herbs on the finish.
