Zandvliet Muscat 2026

Nestled in the Robertson Wine Valley along the Breede River, Zandvliet Wine Estate has built its reputation on producing wines that faithfully reflect their terroir. While best known for Shiraz, the estate also crafts an elegant Muscat that showcases the versatility of this ancient grape variety. Warm days encourage full flavour development, while cool evening temperatures help preserve freshness and vibrant aromatics. Careful harvesting and gentle winemaking retain the grape's naturally intense floral character and sweetness, resulting in a wine that is rich yet refreshing rather than heavy. Colour: Bright golden straw with youthful brilliance. Nose: Expressive aromas of orange blossom, honeysuckle and rose petals are layered with ripe peach, apricot, lychee and hints of citrus peel. Palate: Silky and naturally sweet, offering flavours of apricot, ripe peach, tropical fruit and citrus zest. The sweetness is lifted by fresh acidity, giving the wine a lively, balanced mouthfeel that never feels cloying. Finish: Long, fragrant and clean, with lingering notes of honey, stone fruit and delicate floral perfume.
