Groote Post Riesling

Groote Post Riesling is an expressive white wine from the cool-climate Darling Hills on South Africa’s west coast. The Groote Post estate, once a historic farm dating back to the 18th century, now thrives as a family-run winery with a focus on heritage and sustainability. Their Riesling is a relatively rare find in South Africa, and it showcases the grape’s aromatic character and bright acidity in a uniquely coastal expression.

Lively aromas of lime, green apple, and honeysuckle. The palate is fresh and zesty with flavours of lemon zest, white peach, and a hint of flinty minerality, balanced by racy acidity and a clean, dry finish.

Contains sulphites.

• Thai green curry
• Smoked trout
• Spicy pork bao buns
• Soft goat’s cheese
• Grilled prawns with lime

Groote Post’s Riesling is grown in vineyards cooled by ocean breezes from the Atlantic, helping to preserve acidity and aromatic intensity. While Riesling is more commonly associated with Germany or Alsace, this South African version is a standout example of how the grape can thrive in unexpected corners of the wine world.
