De Trafford Vin De Paille Straw Wine 3V (375ml) x 3 bottles- Provenance: Restaurant Mosaic Wine Cellar Collection
Wedged between the Stellenbosch and Helderberg mountains, situated on the beautiful Mont Fleur farm, is the boutique De Trafford winery. The Trafford family purchased the land in 1976 and a small vineyard was in place by 1983. David Trafford was the first to create this style of wine in South Africa. Inspired by the great Vin de Paille of the Rhone valley and the Jura, it was first produced in 1997. 3V is now a first for them too. A combination of three excellent, but small vintages:2011; 2013 & 2014. Great intensity and sweetness. Dried apricot and lemon skin, some flintiness, but mostly complex honey and treacle. The palate is intensely sweet yet not cloying, fresh and lively with an oxidative complexity and a long clean finish.
