6 Bottles Estate Voyage 3566.1 2019 presented in a beautiful wooden box signed by Kobus Deetlefs.
Ferdi Visser, the winemaker, will accompany the two couples for the weekend for the ultimate wine experience.
Private tasting at Deetlefs Wine Estate with the 7th generation owner, Kobus Deetlefs, followed by lunch overlooking the beautiful Breedekloof wine valley.

About the wine:

Blend:
100% Viognier

Vinification:
Viognier grapes were harvested when full ripeness was achieved. This allows the full varietal potential to be showcased. Three different winemaking techniques are used to ensure a balanced but very complex Viognier that can compete with the best in the world. Whole bunch, hyper-oxidation and skinferments are used to add complexity.

Tasting notes:
Deep rich yellow colour. Extremely complex nose of peach and apricot blossoms with strong Jasmine flower aroma leading to ripe pineapple, dried mango and orange peel. On the palate this wine is big and bold with layer upon layer of off floral and ripe yellow fruit. The taste is elegant yet well structured.

Since Aquila Private Game Reserve was founded, its ethos and that of our team of dedicated staff have been to educate guests on the importance of wildlife conservation, how it affects us all and what we as individuals can do to protect the environment.

Aquila is not only a luxury game reserve and lodge. Its primary purpose is to offer an educational experience to all who visit in the hope that knowledge will enrich our understanding of the importance of living in harmony with Mother Nature.

Over the years, Aquila Private Game Reserve has gone to massive efforts and expense to source and re-introduce wildlife into the Cape region so that local residents and visitors alike can benefit and we are therefore proud to offer our visitors an opportunity to experience a Big 5 safari.
