Pepin Conde

2010 Elgin Pinot Noir

Stark-Conde Pepin Conde is a delightful expression of Pinot Noir from the cool climate of Elgin, showcasing the region's potential for crafting elegant red wines. This 2010 vintage exhibits a captivating ruby hue that invites you to explore its aromatic complexity. On the nose, it reveals an enchanting bouquet of ripe red berries, intertwined with subtle notes of earth and spice, creating a harmonious interplay of fruit and character. The mouthfeel is graciously medium-bodied, with well-defined acidity that provides a refreshing brightness, making it a food-friendly choice for various culinary pairings. The tannins are finely textured, offering gentle structure without overwhelming the palate, while the wine ultimately finishes dry, leaving a lingering impression of sophistication. Stark-Conde Pepin Conde is not just a wine; it's an experience that encapsulates the essence of its terroir in every sip.

South Africa

With its mountainous, maritime-influenced winegrowing regions, South Africa produces top-quality Cabernet Sauvignon and Chenin Blanc and premium Syrah, Pinotage, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. The Dutch brought vines here back in the 1600s to satiate their thirsty sailors en route to India, but they probably never imagined just how important to the wine world South Africa would one day become. Indeed, it took centuries for South Africa to discover its full potential. Most of the country's winegrowing areas thrive in the southwest, known as the Western Cape. Its most famous regions are an easy drive from Cape Town and include Stellenbosch, Swartland, Breedekloof and Franschhoek.
