Wine Tasting- Cederberg

Name: Cederberg South Africa Bukettraube
Varietal: 100% Bukettraube 
Region: Clanwilliam
Country: South Africa
Vintage: 2022
Price: $18

Critic Review: A rare, aromatic wine showing loads of floral honey and dried apricot notes. Semi-sweet on the palate showing balance and finesse. Perfect for spicy foods. Bukettraube is a cross of Silvaner and Schiava Grossa! - Yiannis Wine Shop

Wine Folly: The book did not have a section about this grape!

My Review: Pretty good! I think that it is very cool to be drinking a wine made from a "rare" grape. I have not had this type before and was not sure what to expect. It was sweet with a light fizz on the tongue and had a nice crisp finish. It was very well balanced and I found notes of grass and citrus.  Overall I enjoyed this wine very much and would definitely try it again!


I did not pair it with any food!
