Van Hamersveld Wines was created because Cees van Hamersveld, as owner of several high-quality restaurants and hotels, including the famous boutique hotel De Zwarte Boer, went in search of 'the ultimate glass of wine'. They fly all over the world to assemble these wines themselves. Always with farmers who work with respect for people and nature. The eye has fallen on the vineyards Imbuko Winery in Wellington, South Africa and Domaine de Marotte in the Ventoux, France. A delicious and honest range of wines with an almost unprecedented good price/quality ratio.
The Van Hamersveld Henriëtte is a blend of Viognier and Chardonnay. This combination gives nice round tones, lots of ripe fruit such as ripe banana, mango, but also some white blossom. Deliciously fresh with good acidity, which makes this wine a perfect aperitif, but also recommended with spicy food such as Thai food. Also delicious with a sea bass baked in a salt crust. The wine has been awarded double gold at the Chinese Wine & Spirit Awards.
Wine from Wellington
Constantia, Stellenbosch and Franschhoek are beautiful and symbolic of Cape viticulture. But the Cape Winelands also have a rougher, less touristy side. For that you have to head north to the older vineyards in wards and outlying areas like Wellington, Piekenierskloof and magical Skurfberg. The reward: some of the best and most original South African wines. If you're past Paarl, on the R44 or R45, you'll notice it. The landscape changes slowly and is less populated. Although the city of Wellington has more than 50,000 inhabitants, the surrounding wine region is fairly quiet, also because it is much less touristy than, for example, Stellenbosch and Franschhoek.
