2022 Fire By Night Alheit Vineyards Paardeberg
£49.00
“Fire by Night all comes from the Alheits’ Nuwedam property on the Paardeberg and shows both the quality of the terroir and the talent of the winemaker. Old vines planted between 1971 and 1985 supply the raw material for this taut, chiselled, old wood-matured Chenin. Wild mountain herb, citrus and lime juice flavours are complemented by notes of oatmeal and wax and a bracingly fresh finish.”

Product Description
As one of South Africa’s most respected producers, Alheit Vineyard declares its aim as being ‘to vinify extraordinary Cape vineyards’. The fact that Chris and Suzaan Alheit set out on their venture to make only white wine, is a testament to their commitment to seek out some of the oldest vineyard blocks in the country.
Fire by Night comes from the Joubertskloof side of the mountain, from three very special parcels of Chenin Blanc grown on the Nuwedam farm, planted between 1974 and 1980.
