Video Description: Video blog no3: The oldest vine in South Africa, Kyle also shares his thoughts on the STRAW WINE 2001 - Unidentified grapes from a very old mixed block on Simonsberg, dating back to the time when grapes where co-planted to reduce the spread of pests and diseases. These hand harvested grapes have been dried in a cool shade on a bed of organic straw, as per the traditional recipes used in the Jura, or in the Hermitage on the Rhone... Extremely sweet, with 278 g/l of residual sugar, the complex spiciness makes this wine unique. Dark colour, fruit of a long fermentation of 24 months in oak, from natural yeast, it reveals honey, cinnamon, vanilla, cloves, nutmegs, but as well papaya, pomagranate, and quince multi layered fruit... 91 in Wine Spectator, and Grand Gold at Michelangelo, a magic wine that will complement even the most demanding dessert... iron fist in a velvet, sorry, silk glove.
