Momento Grenache Blanc 2022 Bottle size: 750ml
South Africa, Voor Paardeberg
R290
Young Winemaker of the Year - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2023
‘Grapes from Paardeberg, Voor-Paardeberg and Stellenbosch. Two days of skin contact before fermentation. Hay, herbs, pear and lime on the nose while the palate has pure fruit, zesty acidity and pithy texture, the finish long and saline. Great refreshment value. Alc: 13.29%.’ – Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 93/100
‘A touch more lavish than previous vintages. The Grannysmith and quince of before make way for golden delicious apples and a biscuity, apple crumble and nougat decadence after a fresh and floral nose. The acid remains racy while the palate sports a light pithy grip and even a hint of spice.’ – Winemaker

| Producer information | Marelise Niemann began her Momento brand in 2013. Marelise has a passion for Grenache, which she realised after working with Eben Sadie in Priorat in 2010. Grenache is not a widely planted grape in South Africa, but her passion has led her to find the only Grenache Gris vineyard which is located in Voor-Paardeberg. She is lucky enough to work with vines all over the Western Cape which are unique expressions of their regions and terroir. |
