Back Story & Wine Information

Set at the foot of the mountain after which it is named, Saronsberg Wine Cellar is a contemporary addition to the rich heritage of Tulbagh valley, formed late in 2002 when Waveren and Welgegund, two farm portions of the historic Twee Jonge Gezellen Estate, were purchased and combined to create a unique location for this progressive winery. Saronsberg has rapidly established an impressive track record being highly acclaimed in South Africa and internationally with consistently awarded wines.

Pairing
Seafood: Fresh seafood like oysters, prawns, and crab, as well as simply grilled fish, are excellent pairings. Salads: Its crisp, flinty character complements summer salads, especially those with goat cheese. Vegetarian dishes: It works well with vegetarian options and grilled vegetables. Cheese: Goat's cheese is a classic pairing, but it also complements other cheeses with a tang, like feta. Dishes with tomatoes: The wine pairs well with dishes that feature raw or barely cooked tomatoes, such as gazpacho or tomato vinaigrettes.
