About this Item
Wine of Origin: Bot River
Winemaker: Sebastian Beaumont
The grapes used to produce this wine come from our oldest Chenin Blanc vineyard, planted in 1974. The name GG refers to several elements that are closely tied to the farm and its history. Most notably, the previous owners used their initials, G and G, on their labels. They were pioneer winemakers long before the Overberg, Walker Bay and Bot River regions became recognised wine-growing areas. We estimate that their winemaking activities spanned from the 1930s through to the late 1960s. During this time, they used the railway line running behind the cellar to transport their wine to market, creating a lasting connection between the farm, its heritage and the GG name.
Tasting Notes: The wine displays sherbet-fresh lemon and lime aromas, complemented by a delicately floral character and very well-integrated oak. A zesty entry on the palate brings energy and freshness, leading to a long and intense palate. A hint of sweetness beautifully polishes the acid, creating a harmonious balance and an impressively persistent finish.
Ready for drinking 5 to 10 years from now.
