Remhoogte Estate Wine Tasting

Meet winemaker Chris Boustred, whose family owns Remhoogte Estate, and taste wines grown on ancient granite soils on the slopes of the Simonsberg, South Africa

The wines:

2025 Remhoogte Honeybunch Reserve Chenin Blanc
Chiseled and expressive, with honeysuckle, orange blossom and Gala apple over a fine mineral core and bright acidity.

2023 Remhoogte Vantage Pinotage
100% Pinotage from 30-year-old bush vines on a high granite ridge. Dark plum, ripe red cherry, wild berries and soft cocoa, with a lightly savory finish.

2021 Remhoogte Aspect Merlot
From cool, south-facing shale slopes. Dark and brooding, with ripe currant, black plum, white pepper and cedar, finishing with polished tannins.

2021 Remhoogte Sir Thomas Cullinan Red Blend
The estate's Bordeaux-style blend. Black currant and dark fruit with cinnamon spice and floral hints of lavender and violet.

2021 Remhoogte Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon
The estate's top red. Rich and structured, with intense cassis, dried herbs and fine-grained French oak. Great now with a steak, or cellar it.

NV Remhoogte Golden Dessert Chenin Blanc (375ml)
A luscious late-harvest dessert wine. Honeyed apricot, candied citrus peel and tropical fruit, with a bright, never cloying finish.
