This is what great value is all about: securing world-class, trusted quality from a renowned Stellenbosch estate at an unbelievable price. The Asara Cape White Blend 2018 CVC is a sophisticated, perfectly aged wine that stands as a true testament to the quality of the Cape White Blend category.

Tasting the Terroir: Depth and Complexity Defined

This exceptional, wooded blend of 68% Chenin Blanc, 22% Chardonnay, and 10% Viognier offers extraordinary complexity. You’ll discover vibrant layers of summer fruits—especially quince, citrus, and fresh peach—all supported by a pure mineral foundation.

• Aromas: Lively layered fruits, stone fruit, and delicate French oak notes.
• Palate: Textured and rich, with a lengthy, vibrant fresh finish. The attractive pale-straw colour reflects the wine’s perfect pH balance, giving it energy and intensity.
• Cellaring: Drinking beautifully now, or cellar it for another 2-3 years.

Trusted Quality, Proven Value

Sourced from select, handpicked parcels on higher-altitude granite and duplex soils in Stellenbosch, this wine’s quality is undeniable. The craftsmanship involves a complex process, including the aging of the Chenin Blanc in French oak, clay Amphora, and Concrete Eggs, resulting in restrained mineral purity and fresh acidity. With this Cape White Blend, you are guaranteed a high-value, top-performing wine.
