Product information "Dornier Petit Verdot 2018"
The Dornier Petit Verdot shimmers ruby red in the glass. The bouquet is as impressive as the intense colour, combining the scent of fresh cherries and ripe plums with a hint of earthy forest floor. Full-bodied, well-structured and balanced, the red wine shows itself on the palate and remains in the memory for a long time with its elegance and velvety finish. Enjoy this red wine, which has been aged for 24 months in French oak, best with spicy dishes, pasta, dark meat or mature cheese. But also on its own, the Dornier Petit Verdot is always a treat for every red wine lover.

Dornier Family - complex and refined wines from Stellenbosch
The roots of the Dornier winery go back to the late 17th century, but it has only existed in its current form since 1995. At that time, the Dornier family bought the first of a total of four wine farms. In 2020, the Rupert family, whose earnings are not insignificant for the South African wine world, took over the Dornier winery. The focus is on producing premium wines that perfectly express their unique terroir in the Golden Triangle.
Dornier: Modern Wines of an outstanding Quality
The newly built wine cellar is just as eye-catching as the two painstakingly restored buildings from the 18th and 19th centuries and sets architectural accents with its curved roof, the processed brick and the many reflective surfaces. The wines are extremely modern and belong to the top class of South Africa. In addition to the Cocoa Hill and the Dornier Range, Dornier's portfolio includes the complex creations of the Donatus and Moordenaarskloof collections as well as the flagship wine CDM, which pays homage to Dornier's founder, Christoph Modeste Dornier.
Dornier's vineyards are the basis for diversity in the wine glass
The grapes for the excellent premium wines come from vineyards with different soil types and altitudes, so each grape variety receives the best conditions. At an altitude of 100 to 200 metres above sea level, for example, the vines can take root in deep, decomposed red or yellow granite or sandstone. In addition, cool sea breezes slow down the ripening process and intensify the aromas in the grapes. All of this contributes to the complexity of the wines that visitors can enjoy in Dornier's Tasting Room – along with the panoramic view of the Stellenbosch Mountains.
