Lanzerac Jonkershoek Reserve

The Lanzerac Jonkershoek Reserve is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz and Petit Verdot. The grapes for each variety used in this blend come from selected vineyards in the Jonkershoek Valley in South Africa. The grapes were harvested by hand and selected with the utmost care. Only the best grapes made it into this exceptional red wine. Fermentation and maturation took place in French oak. This expressive Cabernet-based blend is full of aromas of black cherry, chocolate, spices and a hint of cassis. On the palate, the Lanzerac Jonkershoek Reserve is juicy, supple and with silky, integrated tannins. It has a wonderfully long finish.

This full-bodied wine is a perfect accompaniment to hearty dishes, oxtail, game and rack of lamb with a herb crust.

Lanzerac Wine Estate

Das Weingut Lanzerac Wine Estate ist als Perle unter den südafrikanischen Weingütern bekannt. Im schönen Jonkershoek Tal, am Standrand von Stellenbosch gelegen, blickt das Weingut auf eine lange Historie zurück. Bereits im Jahre 1692 wurde die Farm von Isaac Schrijver gegründet und zunächst unter dem Namen Schoongezicht, was wundervolle Aussicht bedeutet, geführt. Damit ist Lanzerac Wine Estate das drittälteste Weingut in Stellenbosch. Der erste Keller wurde um 1800 erbaut, gefolgt im Jahre 1830 von einem Herrenhaus im typischen kapholländischem Stil.

Im Jahr 1920 kam es dann zu einer großen Veränderung. Das Anwesen wurde von Elizabeth Catherina „Kitty“ English gekauft und in Lanzerac umbenannt. Mrs. English erfüllte sich damit einen Lebenstraum und investierte in den folgenden Jahren sehr viel Geld in das Weingut. Dies legte den Grundstein für eines der modernsten Weingüter am Kap. In der Folge kam es zu mehreren Besitzerwechseln. Alle neuen Eigentümer investierten glücklicherweise weiter in das Weingut. Sodass heute nicht nur Wein auf hohem Standard produziert wird, sondern auch ein 5-Sterne Hotel mit Restaurant und Spa-Bereich entstand.

Sollten Sie also einmal in Südafrika weilen, ist der Besuch von Lanzerac Wine Estate auf jeden Fall eine Empfehlung wert.

Lanzerac Pinotage
The grapes for the Lanzerac Pinotage come from vineyards located at an altitude of between 400 and 420 meters above sea level. The prevailing wind here helps to cool the grapes in hot summers. The soils consist mainly of decomposed granite, which favors the deep growth of the vines and the soil retains water better.Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks with regular pumping over. First, second and third-fill oak barrels were used to mature the Lanzerac Pinotage. Maturation took place over a period of 15 months. At this point, the optimal integration between wood and fruit was complete. The result is an excellent color and a scent of ripe berries and plums. On the palate, the red wine is velvety dense, full-bodied, complex and beautifully balanced. Aromas of high-quality chocolate and notes of caramel delight the palate with wonderfully integrated tannins.Enjoy the Lanzerac Pinotage with venison medallions in plum sauce or an Asian curry dish.

Lanzerac Le General 2020
The Lanzerac Le Général is a so-called Bordeaux blend, which could be assigned to the left bank in Bordeaux, i.e. the Médoc region. This style is based on the classic blending of the Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Petit Verdot and Merlot varieties. The grapes for this wine come from the estate’s best vineyards located in the Jonkershoek valley in Stellenbosch. The wine matured for 20 months in first- and second-fill French oak casks. Initially, this full-bodied blend offers aromas of vanilla and nutmeg. Subsequently, it pampers the palate with a flood of notes of dark berries, cooked plums and black currants. The palate is complemented by nuances of dark chocolate and hints of smoke, underpinned by powerful, soft tannins and a never-ending finish. The vintage can already be enjoyed now. We recommend decanting the wine before drinking it. Ennjoy the Lanzerac Le General with braised saddle of lamb with fennel and orange or with white chocolate mousse with cherries.

Lanzerac Merlot
The grapes for Lanzerac Merlot come from vineyards located in the Jonkershoek Valley near Stellenbosch. These vineyards are divided into four different parcels of land with vines that are between 9 and 17 years old, covering an area of 20.31 acres. This terroir consists of deep red, decomposed granite soils and is located between 125 and 400 metres above sea level. After arrival in the cellar, the grapes were selected by hand and destemmed. Before they were gently pressed, the loose grapes underwent a second selection by hand. Subsequently, the grapes were fermented in stainless steel tanks with pumping over twice a day, allowing an optimal extraction of colour and aromas. The Merlot matured for 12 months in second- and third-fill French oak casks. The optimal point of the ripening process was reached by regular racking. This appetizing Lanzerac Merlot has a lot to offer and leaves nothing to be desired. On the nose, it offers concentrated aromas of black fruit, along with sweet notes of vanilla and spicy aromas. The tannins give the wine more complexity, gently underpinning aromas of plums, black cherries, cooked strawberry purée and dark chocolate, finely rounded off by a long, integrated finish. The Lanzerac Merlot goes beautifully with veal chops and portabello mushrooms, gnocchi in a red pepper sauce with crispy pancetta or with a creamy gruyere and parmesan cheese risotto.
