After graduating from Stellenbosch University with a BSc in Viticulture and Oenology, Trizanne Barnard worked multiple vintages in Australia, France and Portugal. In 2008 she started her own brand – Trizanne Signature Wines. Since her first vintage, Trizanne was intrigued by two quite diverse South African wine regions, namely Elim with the cooler temperature vineyards for Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon, contrasted with the concentrated reds of the warmer, drier Swartland. Since then she has grown her wine portfolio, specifically focusing on her affinity for the cooler climates of South Africa’s wine regions.
Grapes for her Seascape Range, are sourced from vineyards from Elim, Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge, Sondagskloof and Benede-Duivenshokrivier. Each wine has been carefully crafted with passion and expertise, capturing the distinct characteristics of its respective ward and Trizanne’s expression as winemaker. These new releases offer a glimpse into the Cape South Coast and are a true reflection of the beauty and diversity found in this area. The label is a creative extension of what you can expect in the bottle.
Trizanne Signature Wines Hemel-En-Aarde Ridge Pinot Noir 2023
R525.00
Region: Hemel-En-Aarde Ridge
Tasting note:
Grapes from two vineyards directly opposite each other but in different demarcations! Alc: 12.79%. Fully destemmed and matured for 10 months in barrel, 20% new. Red cherry, plum, rose and a hint of fresh herbs on the nose. The palate is medium bodied with lots of fleshy fruit, fresh acidity and tannins that are soft and silky. Clean and well balanced.’ – CE
‘A super elegant Pinot Noir, light in colour yet with ample gravitas. Beautiful aromatic expressions of wild strawberries, rose petals, and Turkish delight, with subtle hints of earthiness, spices, and crushed herbs. Beautifully integrated tannins and perfectly balanced acidity contribute to the long yet elegant finish of this wine. Young and vibrant with incredible ageing potential. Give this wine time in the bottle to show its true colours.’ – Winemaker
