Made from old \u003cstrong data-start=\"267\" data-end=\"279\"\u003eSémillon\u003c\/strong\u003e vines planted in the \u003cstrong data-start=\"307\" data-end=\"320\"\u003eCederberg\u003c\/strong\u003e region, north of the Cape, this wine draws its identity from a unique, high-altitude terroir where significant temperature variations and poor granite soils give the grapes remarkable tension and complexity. The vineyard, planted in the \u003cstrong\u003e1930s\u003c\/strong\u003e , is composed of \u003cstrong data-start=\"603\" data-end=\"629\"\u003ewhite and grey Sémillon\u003c\/strong\u003e , cultivated in goblet form using environmentally friendly agricultural practices, without irrigation or synthetic products. The name \u003cstrong data-start=\"743\" data-end=\"756\"\u003eKokerboom\u003c\/strong\u003e , which means \"quiver tree\" in Afrikaans, refers to an aloe species emblematic of the South African desert, a symbol of resilience and a deep connection to the land.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"544\"\u003eThe wine is vinified in a minimalist style: manual harvesting, gentle pressing of whole bunches, spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts in old oak barrels, and aging on lees for approximately 12 months. No superfluous additions are tolerated, allowing a pure expression of the grape variety and the terroir.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp data-start=\"1428\" data-end=\"2021\"\u003eUpon tasting, this wine reveals a complex and captivating aromatic palette. The nose is both floral and herbaceous, with notes of \u003cstrong data-start=\"1569\" data-end=\"1587\"\u003edried flowers\u003c\/strong\u003e , \u003cstrong data-start=\"1592\" data-end=\"1604\"\u003egreen tea\u003c\/strong\u003e , \u003cstrong data-start=\"1608\" data-end=\"1627\"\u003ecitrus peel\u003c\/strong\u003e , and \u003cstrong data-start=\"1635\" data-end=\"1653\"\u003ebeeswax\u003c\/strong\u003e .

On the palate, the wine seduces with its ample, almost glycerine texture, counterbalanced by a lively, saline acidity that structures the whole. The finish ends with a very noble bitterness.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Valade \u0026 Transandine","offers":[{"title":"750ml","offer_id":47667945668956,"sku":null,"price":1949.0,"currency_code":"CZK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0284\/0032\/0643\/files\/Sadie-Family-Kokerboom-chenin.jpg?v=1747932888","url":"https:\/\/www.lebaroudeurduvin.com\/en-cz\/products\/the-sadie-family-kokerboom-2022","provider":"Le Baroudeur du Vin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
