Neethlingshof Estate The Short Story Collection Jackal's Dance is a Single Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc which has all the freshness you'd expect from the grape, with added depth and concentration. It's a wine which offers fruity flavours of white pear, pineapple with a hint of granny smith apples and bell pepper. You'll get a full-mouth experience of cape gooseberry, green fig and litchi, which will linger beautifully on the palate. Fantastic for vegetarian dishes such as mushroom risotto or grilled aubergine.
Neethlingshof Estate has a long and rich tradition of wine making in Stellenbosch, the second oldest and most premier wine producing area of South Africa. The Estate occupies an incredibly privileged site with ideal natural conditions, soils, slopes, altitudes and climate to produce a variety of great wines. All the grapes for the Neethlingshof wines are grown on the estate and all the wine is made, matured and bottled in the cellars of the estate.
For the last 20 years, Neethlingshof has been following an active biodiversity orientated strategy in its farming practices. We are moving away from a mono culture of vines and in the process we are giving back to nature some of what we took from her in the past. We are actively promoting the return of the original Renosterveld in areas where vines used to grow. At the same time we leave islands of already growing indigenous plants or actively plant islands of new Renosterveld in the vineyards. Soil, climate and vines co-exist at Neethlingshof in perfect harmony. Our role in this relationship is to employ management practices that enhance this relationship and thus ensure top vine performance consistently from year to year.
