DESCRIPTION
Stark-Condé The Field Blend 2023 is a white blend from the Jonkershoek Valley (Stellenbosch), composed of 42% Roussanne, 30% Chenin Blanc, 20% Verdelho, and 8% Viognier. Aged for 8 months in French oak barrels and stainless steel tanks, it features 12.5% alcohol and 2.7 g/L of residual sugar. The estate cultivates its vineyards at high altitudes of up to 600m amidst rich biodiversity, using organic and artisanal practices.

REGION
Stellenbosch
South Africa
Stellenbosch is arguably the most prestigious wine region in South Africa. Located in the coastal region of the Western Cape, east of Cape Town, it enjoys a Mediterranean climate tempered by sea breezes and sheltered by the surrounding mountains. Its varied terroir of granite, schist and sandy soils makes it possible to produce both powerful reds and elegant whites.
While Cabernet Sauvignon and Bordeaux blends (with Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot) built its reputation, Stellenbosch is also known for its refined Chenin Blanc, distinguished Chardonnay and expressive Syrah. Home to many iconic estates, the appellation remains a showcase of South African craft.
