Alheit Fire By Night 2021

As usual, the wine is bright and bristling, but still the most restrained of our bottlings.  It usually takes a few years to show its full potential   Now, its youthful nose shows thatch, fynbos, and some citrus. The tightly layered pallet is slightly saline and quite pithy. There are hints of honey and pear to come.  I think this wine will grow into something outstanding.

Fire by Night is a name of personal significance to us, honouring the Lord who led His people out of Egypt in a pillar of cloud by day and fire by night.  The name implies guidance and a dual reverence, both for the place and the One who made it.
