Tasting Note

The wine has bright fruit concentration on the nose, which follows through onto the palate. There is tension and excitement all at once. Nectarine, pear and melon are given depth by touches of spice, lemongrass and ginger, while hints of florals are a further dimension. Time in oak, with close lees contact, has helped to give the wine breadth and depth, still remaining fresh and focused, with a saline and savoury finish.

Product Notes

B Vintners Haarlem To Hope Wine is a striking South African blend, encompassing the dynamic essence of the Cape's unique terroir. This eloquent Bordeaux-style wine amalgamates Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. The romantic mingling offers a stunning ruby colour with a harmonious bouquet of dark berries, leather, and sweet spices. Its indulgent depth of flavour and distinctively velvety texture disseminate an unforgettable savoury and earthy complexity. The wine exhibits opulent fine grain tannins, revealing an impressive finish. Perfect for special occasions, this wine pairs excellently with red meats and gourmet cheeses.

About the Winery

Established in the Stellenbosch region of South Africa, B Vintners winery is a collaboration between cousins Gavin Bruwer and Bruwer Raats. This vibrant enterprise is dedicated to crafting unique, terroir-driven wines that encapsulate the distinctive characteristics of the Cape's complex terroir.

Amongst the undulating vineyards and rugged mountainside, B Vintners takes an innovative and intuitive approach to winemaking. Reflecting the history, climate, and soul of each vineyard, the winery showcases the bounty of the Cape with each bottle produced. From the luscious vineyard resplendent with Grenache Noir to the mature bush vine Chenin Blanc, you can taste the history of the Cape through their wines.

The cellar ranges from classic to contemporary styling, combining Old World practices with New World twists. B Vintners are proud to practice sustainable farming, focusing on low-impact production and agricultural bio-diversity by adjusting to each vine's needs in a natural, minimal intervention manner.

Their wine portfolio boasts notes of exotic fruits and spices as diverse as the Cape’s unique climate making each sensory journey a captivating experience. However, the winery doesn’t just stop at tantalising the taste buds, it also offers a visual feast. This is especially so during the harvest, when sacks of plump grapes are dotted against the dramatic backdrop of the rugged, mountainous landscape.

Along with the fabulous wines, B Vintners is popular for welcoming its visitors with warm South African hospitality. The winery’s tasting room features open fireplaces, expansive vineyard views and the opportunity to immerse oneself into the history of the Cape wines and terroir.

B Vintners is truly a pioneer in crafting wholly authentic Cape wines. They are steeped in tradition while boldly pushing the boundaries of winemaking. It's not always an easy task, but the end product is a testament to their commitment to authenticity and quality. B Vintners is indeed an embodiment of the old adage, ‘wine is bottled poetry,’.
