Signature Brands is operated by the father and son team of Marius Sr. and Marius Jr. Burger. They are integral members of South Africa’s Old Vine Project, an initiative started in 2002 by the iconic Vineyard Manager Rosa Kruger. Under Rosa’s guidance, growers with old vines get paired with winemakers who share their passion of not preserving South Africa’s old vines, but to manage them in such a way that they will consistently produce superior fruit to sustain their future.
The 1983 refers to the age of the vines. Grapes are carefully selected and hand harvested. Fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks, after which the wine stayed on its lees for three months. A small portion of the wine was then barrel aged for added complexity and richness.
This wine offers fragrant aromas of tropical and stone fruits, leading to rich, layered flavors of white peach, pineapple, and citrus, with a subtle touch of vanilla on the finish. It is pleasantly fresh with a lingering aftertaste, and the complexity and structure from old vineyard fruit promise excellent aging potential in the bottle.
