This fresh and fragrant white blend from Villiera Estate delights with floral aromas and a subtle hint of spice. Light and slightly sweet, yet complex enough to pair beautifully with food, it’s an excellent match for fusion cuisine and spicy dishes.
Sustainably produced in Stellenbosch, this wine is perfect for enjoying year-round on any occasion.

Muscat, Riesling and Gewurztraminer were picked slightly earlier than usual to retain freshness and ensure a lighter style. Healthy fruit was handpicked and delivered in the morning while cool. The grapes were crushed and destalked before 6 hours of skin contact. Gentle pressing followed and the juice was settled overnight. Cold fermentation ensured the retention of fruit and after blending and stabilization the wine was bottled.

Cousins Jeff and Simon Grier started the family owned Villiera Wines outside of Stellenbosch in 1983. This particular grape-growing region has a prevailing Mediterranean climate which is favoured for the growing of vines. All the fruit is grown on Villiera making the wines distinctive and unique.
The introduction of the high-tech cellar facilities for the production of still wines as well as Methode Cap Classique sparkling wines, combined with a unique philosophy has seen Villiera developing into one of the country’s leading private wineries.
The winery maintains an environmentally friendly vineyard with 200 ha designated to grapes and the other 200 ha made up of buildings, fallow land, gardens and dams. There is a strong focus on water conservation and recycling and 12000 indigenous trees are currently being planted on the farm as part of a green project. The Wild life in the sanctuary is abundant and Villiera Winery has been accredited as a BWI member. In 2006 Villiera became a part of the WIETA (Biodiversity Wine Initiative).
